This film is a raw nerve. Its biting satire of climate change denial, political apathy, and media sensationalism feels so painfully current, it's hard to laugh sometimes. The struggle to get anyone to take an existential threat seriously, all while the world is distracted by celebrity drama, is a direct reflection of our own polarized, information-saturated landscape. It's frustratingly brilliant.

It’s a dark comedy about the end of the world, but it’s also a giant mirror reflecting our own societal absurdities and how we deal (or don't deal) with inconvenient truths.
