Der Wal und das Ende der Welt

An idyllic fishing village on the English coast, where time still moves slowly. A whale whose appearance could signify the end of our civilization. And a young man who understands how everything in the world is interconnected. One morning, the residents of the fishing village of St. Piran rescue a young man from the water. Everyone cares for him tenderly: the retired doctor Dr. Books, the beachcomber Kenny Kennet, the novelist Demelza Trevarrick, and Polly, the beautiful wife of the pastor. Yet none of them realize how existentially threatened their community is. For the young Joe has fled from a collapse in London. As the global connections become clearer and the crisis approaches, Joe and the residents of St. Piran must decide whom they want to save.
