The Living Wake

“The Living Wake” is a dark comedy set in a timeless storybook universe. Self-proclaimed artist and genius, K. Roth Binew (O'Connell, "What's It Gonna Be"), has one day to live. He has enlisted his best and only friend, Mills (Jesse Eisenberg, "Zombieland", "Adventureland"), 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, his living wake. On a makeshift stage in an open field, Binew's friends and enemies gather to witness his madness one final time.

“Sol Tryon’s dark, irrepressibly hilarious fable offers highbrow absurdism and low-budget filmmaking at their most clever and outlandish.” (Aaron Hillis, TimeOut New York)
