'The Last Days' is a gripping science fiction thriller that incorporates typical genre elements such as a mysterious epidemic and a post-apocalyptic setting, showcasing humanity's struggle to survive under extraordinary circumstances. The irrational fear of open spaces leading to instant death introduces a unique psychological and existential threat, distinguishing it from other Sci-Fi tales that often focus on external physical dangers like aliens or technology. The claustrophobic atmosphere of an enclosed world, particularly the city of Barcelona descending into chaos, adds intensity and depth to the narrative. The protagonist's personal quest amid this pandemic—searching for a loved one without stepping outside—adds emotional stakes that blend personal drama with the genre’s speculative themes, making 'The Last Days' stand out as both an intimate and broadly impactful Science Fiction story.
