Immortality, home and elsewhere

Synopsis

Weaving around a theory of immortality based on the premise that our lives are a summation of all the information we consume and process, the film draws on my personal history's brush with a global nuclear disaster, to precipitate a meditation on the potential role of an individual in the imaginary film/event of our individual or collective death: as a protagonist or an extra appearing in a handful of frames at the very moment of their death.
