'''''Eden Log''''' is a 2007 science fiction film, directed by Franck Vestiel.
It is a classic OntologicalMystery. A man wakes up in the middle of a dark cave. He doesn't who he is, or how he got there. After scrambling around in the dark, he comes upon damaged and abandoned pieces of technology, telling of a paradise named "Eden Log". As he continues to explore his environment, he finds that it is composed of multiple levels, and that there are also mutated humans roaming around. From there he continues to try to reach the surface, find out what is going on, and find a way out.
