It's Only the End of the World
“It would have been a lovely family dinner. If it weren’t the last.”
Drama
Louis, a terminally ill writer, returns home after a long absence to tell his family that he is dying.
VIBE
This is a suffocatingly tense and emotionally raw family drama, steeped in melancholic introspection. It's a claustrophobic slow-burn, exploring the crushing weight of unspoken resentments and the painful chasm of incommunicability. Expect an intimate, character-driven experience, heavy with a sense of impending finality.
