Credence is a 2015 British Sci-fi film written and directed by Mike Buonaiuto. It stars Alex Hammond, Anthony Topham and Tia Kenny. [1] Credence is the story of a family of two torn gay fathers, who sacrifice their lives to save their daughter in the last evacuation from the Earth, before its devastation. [2]

Credence portrays a family torn apart during the last evacuation on earth after violent storms have made continued survival on the planet impossible. Hope has been found in the form of new worlds that support human life, however due to limited rocket capacity and life expectancy only children are permitted to evacuate, and even then only the rich have ended up getting tickets. Two fathers decide to make the ultimate sacrifice, to ensure the survival of their daughter, and the entire human race.

[1] [6] The campaign raised £6,000 in three days, and by the end it had £22,189 ($37,090). filming began on 8 January 2015, and was finished 4 days later.[ citation needed ]
