About
When a single mum accidentally kills a stranger on the morning school run, her 'to-do' list gets a lot more complicated as she tries to juggle parenting along with disposing of a corpse. Set over the course of one not-so-average school day, Buried is a dark comedy that flips the Good Mother trope on its head. Then sets it on fire.
