Garbage
In the Summertime

11-Jul-2017
Young revelers, Jean and Jacob, vow to stop their crazy lifestyle holding them back in life, but first they must live it up for one more night. An infectious short film about partying in your own world no matter what it looks like from the outside. Waking up hungover by a pool, two friends decide to go on a purge. But, as they see it, no purge can begin without one last night of debauchery. And so they get drunk, do drugs, and dance alone at a club. When they get wasted enough, they barrel into a respectable all-white summer solstice party and commence causing a scene. Director Tayler Vee Robinson crafts a colorful mini-romp through L.A. filled with sloppily flamboyant style and hilarious performances by Robinson herself and co-writer Arne Gjelten.
Directed by Tayler Vee Robinson. Written by and starring Arne Gjelten and Tayler Vee Robinson. D.P. Alyssa Brocato. Edited by Nigel DeFriez.
