The moon is headed for the earth. A collision is now inevitable. An intimate pre-apocalypse plays out among Blumen’s gallery of endearing characters, a far cry from brave heroes willing to risk it all to save the human race. Instead, they unburden themselves, revealing their characters through interactions with others—interactions that prove all the more touching for their irrelevance to the desperate situation at hand. Paradoxically, this might be the moment when these people find meaning in their fates and lives. A polyphony of voices betrays an authorial style suffused with a kindness that is reflected in the pastel-colored world of the visuals.
