DANGEROUS LIAISONS AFTER THE END OF THE WORLD
When the trumpets of the apocalypse ring in your ears, your dependency on love grows. You desperately clutch onto it, as if it would vanquish death and save you from tumbling down into the abyss. Love, at the end of days, is insatiable. It hurries ahead, racing death, because your life is at stake, while time leaks away and the cameras are rolling live.
