The Fire Cycle - A Reading from the Book of Regenesis

Director: Clay Steakley

Country of Origin: United States

Defy Year: 2022

Synopsis: The Fire Cycle is a multidisciplinary artwork consisting of films, poetry, music, and visual art. It's a call to stop, to breathe, to return to elemental things and the ritual of the year. This short film accompanies both a poem and song titled "A Reading From the Book of Regenesis," which sets the stage for The Fire Cycle—a regenerative cycle in which large fires cause changes in weather that can lead to other fires, elsewhere. In the process, they bring life and take it away.
