#Main Info
Burn Out
In an unremarkable QLD town, buckling under the cost-of-living crisis and sweltering through another 43-degree summer, young people fill their days tolerating school and their nights playing video games and roaming the streets looking for things to do.
On one particularly hot night, a group of mates make a spur-of-the-moment decision that will change the course of their lives in unforeseen and spectacular ways.
BURN OUT examines why we take risks, the consequences of action and taking responsibility for what you’ve done.
