In the second episode of On the Beach, Peter and Dwight visit a massive underground storage facility and then devour Hollywood’s greatest visions of End Times with the help of an eager DVD salesperson. On the Beach is a series of videos that considers the relationship between the technologies pushing us toward collapse and the apocalyptic scenarios we incessantly invent. In subsequent episodes, the filmmakers encounter the Crypt of Civilization, a time capsule of cultural artifacts opening in 8113 AD; and explore the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, a “final backup” of seed samples from crops around the world, stored within the permafrost of an Arctic mountain.
