Quartet for the End of Time

When a string quartet discover that they can stop time, each player takes a turn to change something in their lives. Starring Mandeep Dhillon and Simon-Anthony Rhoden.

At 10am on a Wednesday morning, the Stellae String Quartet meets for rehearsal. Each of them has met at this time on this day for the last twelve years, but today is different. Today something extraordinary happens. Today they discover that together they can stop time. Shocked, excited, amazed, each player takes a turn to use this new-found power to change something in their lives.
