Ashes

Mar 12-17

Ashes is the collision of two stories a generation apart. In a small village in the south of Norway, we find is a young man who sets houses on fire, and a writer who seizes them as literary material several decades later. These two tragically ordinary beings bend under the onslaught of their demons, burning with a secret fire that consumes them. A story of the human condition, Ashes explores the beast lurking in everyone, and examines our silent agreement with it, not to be devoured.

Funding: Ashes is made possible through the generous support of the Jim Henson Foundation, with additional support provided by The American-Scandinavian Foundation.
