As the conclusion of the trilogy THE EXCEPTION, EPISODE III – THE END OF THE HEROES accompanies the couple from the two previous episodes, but at the same time stands for themselves. The two enter into a fantastic comic-like reality, in which the absurdity of our perception of time becomes noticeable.
