ABOUT THE FILM
Tackling the current uncertainty of the world, our story follows high schoolers weighed down by the fear of the future losing themselves in a whirlpool of a graduation party to ignore their anxieties… also the world is ending.
Acting as a metaphor for how when a chapter in life ends it can feel like your entire world is ending; we are passionate about telling this universally relatable story and now, given the state of things, it’s more topical than ever.
We are excited to be working with exclusively Vancouver talent to both score the film and populate our cast and crew, building the strongest family possible to bring our story to life.
