  The End of Civilisation

Welcome to The End of Civilization, the caustically comic tale of a man, his wife and their world as it falls apart around them. The victims of downsizing, Henry and Lily book into a seedy motel and make a last-ditch attempt to find work. Before long, Henry’s fellow job hunters are checking out on dirt holidays, and just who is planting the bombs at those factories? Max and Donny, two emotionally unstable detectives take on the case as Lily befriends Sandy, the friendly prostitute next-door... The human blowback of corporate profiteering heralds the end of civilization in this gripping Australian premiere which asks you, how low can you go?
