Bird Box

In a post-apocalyptic Northern California, a woman (Sandra Bullock) tells a boy and a girl (Julien Edwards and Vivien Lyra Blair) that the three of them are going on a long journey down a river on a boat. She explicitly warns them not to remove the blindfolds they will be wearing, because if they do, they will die.

Five years earlier, the woman, Malorie Hayes, is very pregnant and living alone, and is visited by her sister Jess (Sarah Paulson), coming to pick her up for a routine check-up with gynaecologist Dr. Lapham (Parminder Nagra). As Malorie gets ready, Jess turns on the T.V. to show her news reports of mass suicides occurring throughout Europe, but they dismiss the severity of the reports and go on their way. At the hospital, Malorie walks past a woman talking on her phone who briefly looks at something outside.
