_VACUUM_, written and directed, by Ace Norton is a satirical short film depicting party culture in Los Angeles. The comedic short follows a party-goer as he becomes a literal vacuum in the midst of an LA party. Norton was inspired to create _VACUUM_ after being drawn to a painting called “Birds of Paradise” by Carl Dobsky when visiting an art show a few years at Bergamot Station in Santa Monica. The painting depicted a well-dressed societal people enjoying the luxuries that life has to offer while the hills are blazing in the far distance. “It was like Emperor Nero who played his fiddle while Rome burned,” says Norton. A few days later, the idea for _VACUUM_ came to be. Watch the film above!
