Our short film Dancing on the Silk Razor, narrated by the incomparable Wallace Shawn, is featured in this month’s Burning House Press, guest edited by C.C. O’Hanlon. Made by the core @booksellersdocumentary team, with Producer and @sanctuaryrarebooks owner Dan Wechsler also acting, the film has many fun book elements, from wonderful old editions to the dark recesses of Manhattan storage lockers. Shot on 35mm by @arlenska and with original music by David Ullmann, it’s a comedic take on literary New York, artistic originality and sanity.

// Premiere // "Our north star while writing was that the movie had to ride the line of being completely overwhelming but entertaining the entire time in order to work."
@chadykins explains how intensive same-room writing sessions with co-writer & actor @sydneyrachel shaped the breakneck surreal comedy of 'Gas Station Sushi' which sees a woman's pregnancy scare become an existential crisis during a drug fuelled party at her boyfriend's insane weird rich friend's house.
