This feature is an an anti-commercial, a negative production, a showcase of the shadow that exists underneath the green grid of the metropolis of Seattle.
We expect the film will either rewire your conception of urban reality.
or,
Remind you of the urgency with which we all must finally make a choice: to continue on our current path or definitively leave it behind forever....

The narration will be broken up into segments covering:

* Train network
* Electrical grid
* Food importation
* Water system
* Other material aspects of urban survival.

For some background on Tides of Flame, see their online journal, joy–freedom–rebellion, and this review in The Stranger.

Much of the film will utilize time lapse shots and archival news footage in order to reveal the bio-political movements of metropolitan order, authority, and control.
