Taking place over the course of a single night and drawing inspiration from the writings of cult literary figures Kathy Acker, Bernadette Mayer, and Alice Notley, the film intertwines dream and reality. Shot in the reddish glow of karaoke bars, cinemas, and clubs - a collective, feminist autofiction with a cast of artists, poets, and actors.

Taking place over the course of a single night and inspired by the writings of cult literary figure Alice Notley, as well as June Jordan, Kathy Acker and Bernadette Mayer, Beatrice Gibson's debut feature film intertwines dream, fiction and reality, each liquefying one into the other.
