5 x 90: The Wake

🎞️ Movie 11 min CA
2005

Five different stories comprise a single ninety second vignette; each tale illuminating an element of the deceased's life during his wake. A meditation on the Buddhist notion of reincarnation, "5x90: the Wake" is a sly and clever look at an interracial family coping with a death in the family. Through its hyper-self-reflexive text, this film endeavors to achieve cinematic nirvana.
