FULL-LENGTH: Archie, Celeste, and Zephyr find themselves traveling along an endless and cyclical path. As they walk, the three grapple with the forgotten purpose of their journey and the vague but persistent traumas of their pasts. Archie, anguishing over the loss of his parents to a mysterious cult known only as “The Brotherhood of the Silent Void”, wants nothing more than to be embraced once more by the familiar presence of his parent's silence. Celeste, whose father was bizarrely transformed into a pile of bagels, uses this gluten metamorphosis as a means to avoid confronting the even more terrifying truth about her mother's fate. Zephyr, whose entire family has self-immolated, embraces this heritage of fire and finds unapologetic comfort in her strange and predetermined path. “A Whirligig of Broken Umbrellas” is a darkly comedic odyssey through memory, trauma, religion, and the ongoing search for meaning in a world that continues to elude understanding.
