Event Details:

Six teenagers. One catastrophic accident. One impossible second chance.

After a roller coaster accident claims the lives of six members of a Canadian high school chamber choir, they find themselves suspended between life and death. Karnak, a mysterious fortune-telling machine, offers them one final possibility: one of them may return to life.

Surreal, irreverent, and unexpectedly moving, Ride the Cyclone unfolds through the stories each teenager tells of the life they lived?and the life they never had the chance to live.

Part ghost story, part musical fever dream, Ride the Cyclone is ultimately a meditation on memory, possibility, and what makes a life matter.
