Los Angeles stand-up comic Miguel Fierro is tired of this pandemic, the lockdowns, the eating, the streaming, the stress, the anxiety–all of it. But most of all, he misses the stage and the highs of bringing a little bit of laughter into the world. With nothing left, Miguel takes us on a journey through LA and into the hearts and smiles of strangers who haven’t felt true joy since COVID kept us apart.

Piyambak
Piyambak merupakan sebuah renungan dan refleksi diri sutradara tentang bagaimana rasanya menjadi manusia terakhir di dunia, kesendirian, dan masa lalu.
Beberapa orang mengatakan bahwa manusia mati bukan saat nafas sudah tidak berhembus, namun saat nama sudah tidak diucapkan. Itu lah mengapa Albert Einstein, Soekarno, dan Muhammad abadi.
Namun apa jadinya jika ternyata kamu orang terakhir yang ada di dunia? Siapa yang tahu namamu? Siapa yang ingat keberadaanmu? Wajah yang kabur, ingatan yang buram, dan aroma yang samar-samar. Bahkan masa lalu pun melebur menjadi ragu.

Welcome to the Dead Space. No one knows where it is. No one knows how you get in. But the residents are desperately trying to get out.

Disembark is the sixth Short Film by drag artist Mandy Sweats. Finalising their Isolation series, Disembark tackles the mix of fear and excitement, nerves and anxiety of jettisoning from isolation.

Disembark tackles these questions in Mandy’s signature surreal, darkly comic style.Made entirely by the artist.
