ENDZEIT - EVER AFTER is a post-apocalyptic feminist gothic fairy tale that takes place two years after zombies have overrun Earth. It is about two young women, Vivi and Eva, who develop an unlikely friendship in order to survive. They are stranded in the land of the Black Forest and have to rely on each other as they search for a more humane world. Their survival, though, has also unleashed surprising demons from their past that they must confront.
