Kate O\u2019Flynn, Amy James-Kelly and Harry Connor), is devoted to preparing for Armageddon and avoiding eternal damnation, although worldly temptations sometimes get in the way.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEveryone Else Burns\u00a0is a coming-of-age comedy about a Mancunian family and the puritanical Christian sect they are devoted to. Will patriarchal David Lewis ever ascend the church ranks and become an Elder? Will\u00a0dutiful\u00a0wife Fiona deviate from her own dogmatic moral compass? Will\u00a0their\u00a0na\u00efve 17-year-old daughter Rachel\u00a0be allowed to go to\u00a0university, and will 12-year-old son Aaron ever fend off his secular bullies? All could lead to damnation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEveryone Else Burns is a subversive, authentic and bitingly funny exploration into what it feels like to balance faith, family and identity in a world that could end tomorrow (but probably won\u2019t).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also been described as \u201cfunny, warm and full of heart\u201d.<\/p>\n<div class=\"&quot;image-handler__container\"
