What begins as a quiet weekend hunting trip turns into a brutal fight for survival.
Wit (Wrenn Schmidt), her husband Sean, and his best friend Mike head deep into a remote forest preserve, hoping to reconnect and escape everyday tension. But when their supplies mysteriously vanish overnight, they realize something is very wrong.
Soon, they discover they are being hunted — stalked by unseen assailants who know the land, control the terrain, and follow rules the victims don’t understand.
As fear escalates and trust fractures:
Wit is forced to confront her own resilience
Sean struggles with control and denial
Mike’s confidence collapses under real danger
With no weapons, no shelter, and no way out, survival becomes a psychological battle as much as a physical one. Nature offers no mercy — and neither do the hunters.
In the end, Preservation strips survival down to its rawest truth:
when civilization disappears, instinct decides who lives.
