THE KULT

Your daughter's vanished. She should be in university, but she disappeared a month after classes began. You've taken a three year vacation from your family. Late one night you see her on the television. Something's wrong. She's not the teenager you walked out on, nor is she the little girl you raised. She's now the centre of a well-connected, powerful doomsday cult that will stop at nothing to protect their vital interest: your daughter. She's being used to recruit new members.

Nathan Berger's journey sees him give up everything, including his identity, reunite with his wife and enter the cult undercover. What he discovers is more terrifying than the cult itself: his daughter's carrying the greatest prophecy foretold.

INSURGENCY

In 2008, the UN estimates that 100 million people will be on the move from the underdeveloped world to the West. In a quiet city, a mysterious Egyptian businessman relocates his family and his fortune away from his past. He's looking to atone. He's looking to live peacefully with his family.

Everyone wants a head start—including an assassin—whose signature act is to murder the Egyptian's daughter and slaughter four innocents who get in the way. The assassin is a woman, a Chechen Black Widow. Both hunter and hunted are Muslim. Enter a cop who is suffering from MS. As his hands shake and his body deteriorates, he acquires the skills to reveal the Egyptian's dark past and plot the killer's capture.

Insurgency is a dramatic eight-hour series that traces three storylines: the hunter, the hunted, and the cop. What makes the show unique is that the assassin's storyline is presented alongside the other protagonists. This allows the audience to see the human side of terror and challenge the assumption that the good guys always win. By presenting these stakes in this way, everything is up for grabs, including our notions of character, victory, and villainy.
