Two women embrace their son
To sum it up in one sentence: Ordinary? Definitely not. Failure: Oh, yeah.

In the midst of an unspecified apocalyptic event rocking the city of Prague, we follow three individuals, connected only in a series of coincidences, as they make their way through the day and confront the ways in which their lives (even before the apocalypse) are not okay. The problem is that it is a group of weird people doing weird things for weird reasons while weird things happen around them, with only the thinnest of threads connecting their stories, does not a good story make. It’s not horrible, and fans of truly strange movies may enjoy it, but I definitely say NOT RECOMMENDED.
