FULL-LENGTH: Three individuals – Archie, Celeste, and Zephyr – travel through an endless and cyclical path. As they walk, the three struggle with the forgotten purpose of their journey and the haunting traumas of their individual pasts. Archie, tormented by the loss of his parents to a mysterious cult known only as “The Brotherhood of the Silent Void”, wants nothing more than to be lulled to sleep 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 to avoid confronting the even more terrifying truth of her mother's tragic fate. Zephyr, whose entire family has self-immolated, embraces her heritage of fire and finds unapologetic comfort in her predetermined path. “A Whirligig of Broken Umbrellas” is a darkly comedic odyssey through memory, trauma, religion, and the ceaseless search for meaning in a world that eludes understanding.
