Darren Aronofskyās AFI short opens with angry slacker Dave sitting in a dreary, empty junkyard. Dave stares into space, sips beer, and beats the hell out of a cracked guitar. We quickly realize the emptiness of the dump parallels the emptiness of Daveās life which consists of smoking weed, staring at television screens and watching school children. Daveās friend Pete is shortly introduced, along with their friend, Ari, who despite calling her pals losers, doesnāt seem to accomplishing much herself. These three are going nowhere fast. Theyāre the amoebas of lifeā¦ protozoaā¦.
