HUMANITY is no stranger to a global disaster or even an extinction level event.

- PRASHANTH VALLAVAN

Mirroring The Dark Times

With all our sophistication and technological advancements, there is always a lingering sense of comfort. If we could land on the moon, we could handle a virus, or so we thought, until Covid-19 hit and the entire world was forced to shut down and stay indoors. An event we had never collectively experienced as a species before. It was a wake-up call to our arrogant overconfidence. Suddenly, no scenario is improbable, strange, over-the-top, or unimaginable. And the most improbable, strangest, and hard to-imagine scenario of them all, is a nuclear apocalypse. A House of Dynamite rips open our blinds and shows us how close to the cliff we all are teetering. And this long, unflinching look at the dark, never-ending void is hopefully the closest we get to reality.
