SYNOPSIS

Mount St. Helens, 1980.

In this psychological thriller-like closed-door setting, two characters find themselves at the foot of a volcanic mountain about to erupt.
Truman, an old man who has lived on the mountain for decades, meets Bird, a volcanologist who has driven across the continent, carrying a troubled past in her small suitcase.
The encounter between Bird and Truman will be as unpredictable as the nearby volcano, which could explode at any moment.

For an adult audience, ages 16 and up.
Running time: 75 min (to be confirmed)
