Post-apocalyptic action thriller The Protector gets a trailer and poster

May 22, 2025 by Amie Cranswick

A trailer has arrived online for The Protector, the Mad Max-esque post-apocalyptic action thriller from writer-director Raul Gasteazoro.

The film follows Key (Marguerite Moreau), a woman serving a life-sentence who is offered a chance of freedom and to make amends for her past when she is tasked with gaining access to the region’s last freshwater aquifer.

Joining Moreau in the cast are Graham Greene, Chris Redman, Mark Lane III, Jade Tailor. Check out the trailer below…

Ravaged by water wars, famine and drought, the West is once again wild, and peace but a thing of the past. Children are rare. Water is scarce. Life hinges on a delicate balance.

In order to escape a life-prison sentence and win her freedom, Key makes a deal with Gael, the leader of a brutal gang of outlaws known as the Revelers.

Amidst her perilous journey Key stumbles upon an orphaned boy named Kellan and realizes there’s more at stake than she thought. Now, with an opportunity to right her wrongs, and a new-found sense of duty, Key fights to protect what’s left and the future of the west.

Key’s job is simple: a Native American reservation has the region’s last freshwater aquifer beneath it, but it is surrounded by a minefield. Key is the only one who knows how to get in. If she can do it, she will be free.

The Protector is set for release on May 23rd.
