Burnt Toast

We find ourselves somewhere in the Deep South, in a hotel lobby with a front desk and two elevators — one going up, the other going down.
Betty, the receptionist, is busy typing when Danny appears with a silver briefcase chained to his wrist.
After checking in, Danny wants to visit the museum, but then he spots Violet. She sits in the lounge sipping a drink while breast-feeding her baby daughter.
Violet thinks her daughter looks a lot like Danny. Could he be the father? What's inside his briefcase? When does the museum close? And what about the future?
The afternoon in the lobby becomes increasingly twisted and blood will flow in dirty streams as dreams and hallucinations and bodies merge into matters of life and death.

"I can safely say that I’ve never seen anything quite like Burnt Toast (…) a disturbing yet tender tale of love and cannibalism." (New York Times)
