The Burning World (2018)
The Burning World
A pseudo horror film, set within the confines of an adult bookstore, an estranged son comes home to help his sick, ailing father’s store. The son confronts horrors, both real and imagined, as he and his father’s employees come to grips with his unrelenting sickness. Facing fears in a shifting world that seems stuck in time and irrational spacial connections, the son battles both auditory and visual hallucinations, while coming to terms with his father's seemingly worsening state. Fusing the aesthetics of horror, exploitation and art, the film attempts to show and rearrange the genres to tell a story about humanity and mortality.
