Composed of six discreet episodes, The End is a remarkable apocalyptic post-war saga of impending doom, which follows the last day on earth for six people living in the shadow of the A-bomb. A bewildering and incoherent rant against the impending holocaust, directly addressing the viewer.
Haunted by a fear of atomic destruction, the American Beat poet and filmmaker Christopher MacLaine used a cast of his friends to create this chaotic and poetic vision of the apocalypse. Intercutting B&W and color sequences, The End finds brief moments of beauty amid the ruins of the 20th century.
