2015 Movie
Dir. Chanya Button · UK, United Kingdom · English
A razor-sharp script and beautiful scenery make this one of the best road movies in recent memory.
When their cynical best friend dies, Seph and Alex embark on a journey to scatter his ashes over four spots he wants to go back to. Tupperware of ashes in the glove-box, they start their big adventure.
Burn Burn Burn, an expression their friend quotes from Kerouac, is a chance for the two friends to escape their hectic city life and to discover themselves. It’s a beautiful movie.
Following the death of their friend, two girls in their late twenties embark on a road trip to spread his ashes. Seph and Alex take turns driving. Dan is in the glove compartment, in tupperware, decreasing in volume as the trip progresses.

Highly recommend this movie, the actors, the story, the music – everything is great!
I loved this movie to the end, especially the way the two friends must accept their differences in the relationship at the urging of their deceased friend, and the forgiveness we all have hidden deep within ourselves.
