International Short Film Competition

Pathologies of Everyday Life

Sebastian and Robin end their alcohol-and-drug binge at a scenic spot, sitting atop the hood of their car. This is where their final act will take place, their grand gesture toward all. They were the school pariahs and now work as supermarket clerks. They blame Mr. Brunt, their high-school theater professor who kept giving them the worst parts in the school plays. They also blame society — at large.
