Four young office workers have a bet going to see who can last the longest without going outside. In the maze that is the downtown core of a large city, glass skywalks connect apartment buildings, office towers and shopping malls. Its day 28 of the bet and over the lunch hour, as the office prepares for the company founder's retirement party, things start to seriously unravel. d9a Written by Anonymous Set in the voyeuristic maze of glass towers, malls, interconnecting walkways, and food courts that make up downtown Calgary Waydowntown is a comedy about a group of young employees who bet a month's salary, winner takes all, on who can last the longest without going outside. Tom (Fabrizio Filippo), a bored young trainee, comes up with the idea of the wager; but after a few weeks of being trapped like ants, Tom and the other participants begin to struggle to stay sane. Shot on digital film and transferred to 35mm, Waydowntown captures a sense of heightened realism in a suffocating world of offices, parking garages and constantly humming air ventilators. Burns' creates a world that has us questioning the way we spend our days and makes us reconsider our aspirations and goals, with energy, humor and imagination. Written by Anonymous
