The two share a taboo and passionate relationship in hidden peace, until the dreams start.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGod speaks to them in visions of smoke and fire, night after night, until the two of them come to a truth they cannot ignore; Dante is the Antichrist, sent by God and urged to start off the apocalypse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDante refuses to participate in the end of the world and the damnation of souls. But Jude is a loyal pastor, indifferent to the suffering of others, and is compelled to do what God tells him; even if it means killing the love of his life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis queer horror love story hones in on the humanity of the Antichrist, a half-human entity as flawed, complex, and doomed as any other soul.
