part psychological thriller, part study of human nerve and frailty, hard wire follows two scientists in an embodied study of rocks and permanency. felt through the lens of two millennial-ish women, they observe not only the climate crisis itself, but more so, humanity’s inaction and deflection in the face of determining how and if we move forward.
