What happens if you die, but you are not quite ready to face judgment? What are your options? Can you choose to hover at Death’s door, never crossing the threshold? How long will Death let you linger?
At Death’s Door, created and produced by Vivid Strokes Collective, imagines the world between life and death. A young woman (Andrea Romero Cartas) is waiting at a bus stop when a stranger (Meadow Agar) approaches and engages her in conversation. The stranger asks what the woman is waiting for. The woman replies that she is waiting for the bus, as she is going to a family gathering at her sister’s place. Through ongoing discussion with the stranger, the woman is forced to reconcile with the fact that the bus will never come, and she must choose whether to keep waiting in the void or to continue on a different journey with the stranger.
