Cordelia and Sara, a professor and a student, are at the bus stop when they receive the government’s message announcing the end of the world. But for Sara, not even a single friend texts her to hang out and spend the last hours with her. Cordelia’s brother offers an idea: write a song, ask for donations, and help an artist. But the real question is: what goes through people’s minds the day before everything ends? One of the most listened-to podcasts in Mexico and many other countries, it moves you and makes you reflect.
Cordelia, a middle-aged university professor, is at the faculty bus stop with her friend Sara, who is a student there. Cordelia tells her that she received an email from the government announcing that the world will end the next day, which Sara doesn’t believe.
A newspaper confirms the announcement, and bizarre situations begin to unfold: dogs banging their heads against walls, cows barking, couples having sex in gardens, firefighters and police officers fighting, a priest promoting confessions, and holy water being sold online.
While Cordelia reflects on how she should spend her last day on Earth, Sara remains skeptical because none of her friends have sent her a text or email about it.
As they continue pondering their lives, Sara’s brother Jaime, a musician, arrives with the idea of releasing a song and asking for donations, giving humanity one last chance to do a good deed by supporting an artist’s work. Cordelia thinks it’s a brilliant idea, while Sara mocks her brother. Cordelia spends her final days immersed in philosophical musings and a dreamy perspective on life, while Sara, more pragmatic and direct, faces the end with a realistic outlook. However, they both share one inevitable certainty: in the end, the world will end, won’t it? And with it, perhaps their opposite ways of understanding it may finally converge.
