After the extinction of women and the destruction of the moon, an imaginative young man realizes that his sexuality is the one thing that may keep him alive.
Do I detect an allegorical subtext here, a commentary on our present "crazy" world? What's the dramatic import of the destruction of the moon? How does that relate to events on the earth, specifically the loss of the entire female population? Is the loss of the lunar orb inversely and perversely relRead more
Do I detect an allegorical subtext here, a commentary on our present “crazy” world? What’s the dramatic import of the destruction of the moon? How does that relate to events on the earth, specifically the loss of the entire female population? Is the loss of the lunar orb inversely and perversely related to most of the survivors going ‘looney’?

One potential deficiency I see with the premise, insofar as I understand it, is that there is no “B” story — no subplot entailing the building and bonding of a relationship with an emotionally significant other person. The “B” story for a guy usually involves a relationship with a gal. But gals are a less than zero factor in this premise.
In commercial film, “No Man is an island, Entire of itself” is more than a line of poetry, it’s a dramatic imperative. “Every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main” — and that continent, that main is other people, society.
Well, you’ve got some wild and crazy guys. With whom in particular does he build a relationship?

Well, mere survival is a start, but... As presented, I might be over-jumping to a conclusion is that there's no hope for the survival of the human species.

“that his sexuality is the one thing that make be keeping him alive” — huh? How? I mean the only thing the comes to my prurient mind is wanking off.
“when things get dangerous” — How? What’s the antagonistic force or agent?
