It's the universal exhaustion. We're all tired. Life has ceased to have a fundamental meaning, ironically where the meaning is found. We've become bored existentialists, tired nihilists, worn out Jains, depressed Buddhists, crushed philosophers.Exhaustion follows such a story, such a truth. Imagine two tired street kids approaching you, not knowing what to do with their feelings and attachments. Meet Rafael and Simon, Rafael the upbeat optimist still worn by the streets, and Simon, the kid who wishes for a father and struggles with an intense sadness he can't quite explain. Or Lucas, a man who struggles with his mind, struggles with the big questions, isolates himself and tortures himself to be a true existentialist and understand reality, existence, falling prey to madness when he can't take it anymore, when the absurd universe Camus envisions finally takes its toll. It is a story that will make even Nietzsche weep with regret, remorse, and sorrow for the state of the world, for the suffering that exists.Synthesizing early Eastern philosophy and religion with the Western existentialists amidst a chaotic plot, Exhaustion seeks to ask the hard questions. What constitutes reality? How do we know we understand existence ... or, is reality something that can't be understood? How do we escape our earthly attachments, or is it the earthly attachments what makes life worth it, even if it causes inevitable suffering?When you're homeless, when you're mentally tortured, when you're down on your luck, sometimes, it seems attachment is what gets you through ... even if it hurts.Even if it leaves you exhausted, worn out, tired: That's exactly where the meaning is.
