Synopsis:

“How do our lives ravel out into the no-wind, no-sound,

the weary gestures wearily recapitulant:

echoes of old compulsions with no-hand on no-string:

in sunset we fall into furious attitudes, dead gestures of dolls.”

— William Faulkner

In response to, and in defiance of, William Faulkner’s poem The Marble Faun (1924), As We All Lay Dying is a meditation on the struggles and hardships of life, and on the dedication of oneself to a purpose until the final breath. It celebrates those who dare to dismantle the worlds they inherit, to forge new ones. Their spirit of dedication that persists beyond endings: restless, courageous, and endlessly becoming.
