Waking Up

Waking Up

by Augusto Federico Amador

directed by Rick Vargas

World Premiere

A young man with paralyzing death anxiety becomes infatuated with a mysterious woman he meets at the wake of his uncle. Only to learn that not only did she never know his uncle, she has an addiction to crashing the wakes of strangers. Together, she leads them on an adventure as “wake hoppers”, crashing a series of wakes and funerals as he falls deeply in love with a woman who is more in love with the dead than the living.
