about

In EL SEGUNDO BLUE, two disillusioned strangers embark on a cross-country journey to save an endangered species of butterfly from extinction. Word's spreading fast that the world is ending -- but for Logan, it already has. When a hot-headed stranger shows up to his rural Ohio town, Logan agrees to leave his life of banality behind to answer the call of adventure. As the two embark on a trip across the nation, a war burns in their wake. Ultimately, EL SEGUNDO BLUE is a radical call to action: to act with empathy, to act with love, to act in the name of liberation. EL SEGUNDO BLUE is a story fueled by our current climate crisis -- a story about the power of community, of resilience, of determination. It's a hypothesis on how to fix a dying world, and how to save oneself in the face of certain extinction.
