BURN OUT
BURN OUT
Amber wakes up from a deep sleep inside the reactor of an atomic power plant. She gradually realises that the plant must have been abandoned a long time ago and that she is the only one left behind. She goes looking for answers as to what happened to her, to the plant and everybody else. But time is running out.
BURN OUT is an ethereal short film about the choices we make, consequences and memory. Filmed in the defunct and atmospheric nuclear power plant in Lower Austria.
With a stellar performance from Jella Jost and Julius Peter Steiner.
