The two young protagonists lark around, flirt, tell secrets to each other, explore the city, drink beers in a flat and wait for an unnamed apocalypse to end the world. On the way, they meet some people, have flashbacks of their lives and show each other that they are true best friends.
It sounds silly and inconsequential, doesn't it? But it's not. The film holds the attention for the whole running time.
Love was fulfilled in one way. But in another, neither lad had time to achieve their last actions and ambitions as the searing light took them.
Well played by the two young leads whose performances made it all hang together. They really are convincing.
