Tom Pnini’s film follows the residents of a typical suburban apartment building who unknowingly live at the foot of a volcano which seems to have landed on their rooftop. The surprising, absurd link between the gray building and the lava-spewing volcano resembles the décor for a B- sci-fi movie, a backdrop where theatricality and an exotic fantasy come together to introduce a threat both metaphorical and real.
