David Lynch has released his short film Fire (Pożar) online. The new short was written, directed, and drawn by Lynch, with music performed by the Penderecki String Quartet and written by Marek Zebrowski, a frequent Lynch collaborator who most prominently worked with him on the 2007 joint album Polish Night Music. Fire (Pożar) has been in the works since 2015, as Lynch told the USC Thornton School of Music at the time. “The whole point of our experiment was that I would say nothing about my intentions and Marek would interpret the visuals in his own way,” Lynch said. “So I say it was a great successful experiment.” Check out the short film in full below.
Earlier this year, Lynch released another new short film, WHAT DID JACK DO?, on Netflix to celebrate his 74th birthday. He’s also revived his series where he reports the weather. Watch one segment below.
