If there ever was a bad time to fall in love, dangling by the neck from a rope tied to a chandelier would be it, but love just doesn’t care...
By the year 2031, global warming cooks the planet, endless wars sweep the globe and pollution tries to finish everybody off.

Nobody leaves a ‘Last Resort’ alive.
