Synopsis

"The Living Wake" is a dark comedy set in a timeless storybook universe. Self-proclaimed artist and genius, K. Roth Binew, has one day to live.

Binew sets out to hand out invitations to his final party, a living wake. He has enlisted his best and only friend, Mills Joaquin, to take him around on a bicycle powered rickshaw. In a final attempt to probe life's deepest mysteries, Binew endures one Ridiculous trial after the next.

He concludes his day with a final performance at his living wake. On a makeshift stage in an open field, Binew's friends and enemies gather to witness his madness one final time.
