Taking place around
04/04/04 over the course of four days, CARMA is a chilling American
tale about an abandoned CAR haunted by a psychopathic killer’s
dead MA. Trapped in the car, the spirit of the deceased Kate Burns
(the voice of Academy Award Nominee Karen Black) encounters four
average Americans who each discover and use the car to their own
personal gain. But Kate has other plans, namely a reunion with her
son, recently escaped convict Norm Burns (portrayed by real ex-San
Quentin convict Peter Kiszka). This gritty, fractured narrative,
revolving around the theme of karmic justice and driven by improvisational
directing and acting (a cast of all real people, anchored by Karen
Black), provokes the question, “What's more frightening and
bizarre....the supernatural or reality?”
