Director: Lindsey Barlag Thornton Actors: Paul D'Addario Brendan Donaldson Rebekah Brockman
Two men, Meatball and Arthur, sit outside a 7/11 in downtown Los Angeles as a wildfire approaches, the latest in a series of natural catastrophes that has caused massive casualties all over the United States. Other than a traveling reporter bringing stories of the fates of other Americans, they are the last people alive. The Fires is a pitch black surrealist comedy about love trying to survive the existential perils of the world.
