Captive State

Movie • 2019 •   

Report
Nearly a decade after occupation by an extraterrestrial force, the lives of a Chicago neighborhood on both sides of the conflict are explored. In a working-class Chicago neighborhood occupied by an alien force for nine years, increased surveillance and the restriction of civil rights have given rise to an authoritarian system -- and dissent among the populace.

The dog of one of the rebels seems to be abandoned by him after pretending to go for a walk. Wasn't necessary.

Kinda. People are tracked via implants. Plus the police are trying to hunt down the insurgents.

One character has a horse kept underground. Horse is only shown in one quick scene. Movie doesn’t follow up on what happened to the horse after the owner/watcher leaves.

But they remove those implants and put them in rats. Rat seems to survive! But after I couldn't find a pet rat trigger warning I thought it would fit here.

Many people die by suicide. Characters plan to ingest cyanide pills if caught, and one is shown doing it. When a cell is discovered, all of its members kill themselves. The acts aren't shown, but the aftermath is: an empty window, a man who has cut his wrist in a bathtub, and someone who has walked into the ocean.
