This is the story of Birdman, fifteen years old, no family, no friends - a loner with nothing to lose.
Where are you starting?
At the beginning.
Birdman’s story? It doesn’t have a beginning. It flows. It just all flows along this stretch of dirty water.
One thing’s for certain: Birdman’s story has a definite and dramatic ending.
Narrated by a group of friends during a relentless summer heatwave, Burn follows the final day of the boy that they never really knew- Joey Hawk. As they relive the day by the river, small moments, throwaway comments and buried tensions begin to surface. What really happened that day? And why didn’t anyone see it coming?
Burn is a raw and gripping exploration of memory, myth, and an ill-fated trip in a stolen car.
