A hurricane is approaching a sleepy Florida town, and residents rush to prepare for the mandatory evacuation. As tourists depart and most locals abandon their homes, a handful of stragglers choose to stay behind. In the ghostly emptiness, Florida has never appeared so hauntingly beautiful — nor humanity so fragile in the face of nature’s force. Timely and subtly depicting the climate crisis, Alexandra Simpson’s debut premiered at the 2024 Venice Critics’ Week.
