Surrounded by the aftermath of a nuclear war, one town has managed to pick up the pieces and rebuild, populating its streets with the only known survivors and boxing them all in with a giant wall that encircles the town. However, as time passes, a group of young friends become dissatisfied with their lives and plot to explore what's really beyond the walls.
Told from several different perspectives, 'A Pathetic Avenue' tells a story that surrounds the point of life, the destruction of death, the manipulation of society, and the all-consuming desire to escape.
