No One Will Save You uses its dialogue-free story to allow the audience to project fake morality on its protagonist, until the big reveal.
writer/director Brian Duffield, is an exercise in clever misdirection from its opening moments. Both refreshingly direct in premise and slyly subversive in its evolution and conclusion, it relies on nothing so much as the audience’s own assumptions to turn its final moments into a revelation and critique of its own main character.
The reason for Brynn’s spurning likewise becomes clear soon enough: She has a dead childhood friend, Maude, who passed away when they were in their mid-teens, and Brynn is clearly both responsible for the incident and guilty to this day. Worse, Maude’s parents still live in the town and aren’t shy in their hatred of Brynn, while our protagonist has also lost her one remaining piece of support with the recent death of her mother.
But then a curious thing happens. When Brynn is eventually abducted by the alien craft, they psychically probe her memories and emotions, witnessing the history of her trauma and seemingly coming to a greater understanding of people, or at least of Brynn personally, in the process.
Brynn has always lived in her own little world. Now, her world just has a bunch of friendly alien slaves in it.
