Synopsis: A group of old friends gets together for a weekend in a mountain cabin. Years have gone by and yet nothing seems to have changed between them. A strange, sudden incident alters their plans, leaving them stranded and with no line of communication to the outside world. On their way for help, the group starts to disintegrate, just as a new natural order is unveiled before their astonished eyes. | |
Review: Finally a post-apocalyptic movie without violence. To get that, the people just disappeared and it is then an in camera with a group of old friends meeting again. Their new differences, their old fights, the new girlfriends come up and are pushed down by the strength of friendship in front of adversity. In this, the movie is also creative. No violent acts nor violent verbal exchange nor extreme reactions. The group of friends are ordinary people and react as ordinary people would do in these extraordinary events. This makes this movie more moving and less "entertainment". This is a bit like the myth of Cassandra without the conflict of Cassandra's believers and non-believers, so that we do not focus on the conflict but on the emotions you have in case of apocalypse. | |
