Bulgarian-born American-raised rapper Dali From The Valley, or Dimitar Ognyanov, dies, and when at the gates of the afterlife, he meets The Gatekeeper, and together they must decide if he belongs Above or Below. This follows a recollection of Dali’s life: through his American upbringing, his Bulgarian heritage, his complicated relationship with his sister, the loss he feels having never met his mother; his reunion with his estranged father, as well a depiction of the seemingly meaningless life of excess he’s led, his entourage, the endless troubles with various partners, and a long, long trip down a memory lane of all the mistakes Dali’s made and all the pain he’s caused.
The film explores themes of cultural belonging, the weight of memories, nature vs. nurture, the pain of staying at the top, love, finality, and whether our choices define us.
We all know a Jeanine: 40’s, childless, partnerless, wondering not just, “How did I get here?” (that’s the easy question) but “Where next?” and, more importantly, “Who with?” Jeanine’s is a simple goal: She wants someone to say her name in the dark. So a husband, i.e. someone contractually obliged to be with her, seems like the answer. Which is how Jeanine came to be here in a wedding dress, beside an A-road on a rainy day, holding a sign that says, ‘MARRY ME’. Problem is, the various men who stop and talk to her have their own agendas (not all of them honourable... ). Then a car pulls in and out fall two drunk women: hen party sashes, gins in tins and a jilted bride-to-be who’s the angriest woman to ever draw breath. Rival bride Jeanine seems the ideal target for her fury. Until Jeanine realises how to unite them all in their various frustrations. Burning her charity-shop wedding dress like a flag, Jeanine's chance meeting with the women becomes an anarchic, joyful celebration of female unity…
