Outage

14 min

A gentle, sun-baked short that ambles through a quiet family outing and turns softly strange.

Directed by
Graham Kolbeins
Overview
With the heat threatening a grid outage, a queer couple sets out on their "perfect desert day" with their bored pre-teen nephew begrudgingly in tow. But if anything can get him out of his video game, maybe it's an encounter with a visitor from outer space.
