TIKI BAR FUNERAL HOME

SHORT FILM BLOCK // PRESENTED BY THE SQUAD

Curated by Jordan Bayne

SYNOPSIS

Failing actress, Adrianna Parisi, is now free to pursue Damon, the best friend of her recently deceased ex, George. She picks no better time to tell Damon how she feels than at George’s tiki-themed “celebration of life”, held back in the small town she left behind. But Adrianna’s intentions are foiled when she arrives and finds that George is still alive, yet barely breathing; having this party, his last dying wish.

An exploration of regret, this tale about drugs, alcohol, and tiki parties is an homage to the coming-of-age rom-com that formed millennial adolescents.

But if you are expecting a love story… think again.
