Everyone Is Going to Die 2025

Melanie, portrayed by Nora Tschirner, is a young woman from Germany who relocates to a quaint seaside town in England to be with her fiancé. However, upon awakening the morning after a lively party, she discovers that her fiancé has abandoned her, leaving her alone and lost. In her state of uncertainty, she encounters Ali, played by Kellie Shirley, who offers her a lifeline by helping her find a job as a waitress. As she grapples with her newfound predicament, Melanie’s life feels directionless, with a lack of friends, finances, and any real sense of purpose – her only distraction being the care of her fiancé’s niece, a role she does not find particularly enjoyable.

In a twist of fate, Melanie crosses paths with Ray, embodied by Rob Knighton, a man in his fifties who bears the air of a stereotypical East End hitman. Yet, as we delve deeper into Ray’s backstory, we discover that he has returned to his childhood town to reconnect with the family of his recently deceased brother. The two form a gradual bond, sharing personal stories and navigating through a series of awkward yet comical experiences, including encounters with Ray’s quirky relatives.

Their relationship takes a significant turn when they meet Ray’s niece Laura, skillfully portrayed by Madeline Duggan. This encounter inspires Ray to confront his familial past, while Laura finds solace in connecting with her uncle. The day unfolds with laughter and camaraderie, yet the evening brings a twist when Melanie receives a phone call from Ali, notifying her of a job opening at Beavers, the restaurant where Ali works. Reluctantly, Melanie decides to accept the position as a roller-skating waitress, which feels like a low point in her life.

That night, feeling despondent, she wanders to a special spot by the harbor, only to find Ray there, equally troubled. In a moment of reckless spontaneity, Melanie leaps into the water, provoking Ray’s deep-seated fear of it. He follows suit, and together they come to a mutual decision that it’s time to let go of their pasts and focus on the future. With a sense of purpose ignited within her, Melanie returns home to pack up her meager belongings, while Ray confronts his own unresolved issues. As Melanie sets off on a train, reflecting on the landscape rushing by, she catches a glimpse of a familiar figure walking through the carriage, hinting at a new chapter in both of their lives.
