About 'Lost Cellphone Weekend'
Don Birnam has a problem. But it's not the usual stuff, like booze or drugs. He has a social media problem, a problem with his cellphone. Like many of us do. This weekend, he will be tested as never before!
A musical mashup, a love letter to Film Noir, a cautionary tale about our screen-centered modern life - and a satire on artists that try to singlehandedly solve social problems - Lost Cellphone Weekend is inspired by the 1945 Billy Wilder film "The Lost Weekend" with Ray Milland and featuring the classic noir music by Miklós Rózsa.
