Set on a single lazy August day during a record-hot summer, a group of bored and disconnected teens throw a party. As the night unfolds, three intertwined storylines capture the essence of growing up amid the backdrop of the current climate crisis. The narrative evolves into a near-Lynchian freakout that escalates into a sexy, psychedelic dance number. A blend of experimental imagery and realist storytelling captures the essence of youthful exuberance and the looming sense of a dangerous and uncertain future.
