In 1981 New York City, a collection of twentysomethings try to cope with relationships, loneliness, desire and their individual neuroses on New Years Eve.

Stuck in a cycle of bad decisions and even worse relationships, a young man wanders through a smoky, neon-soaked New York City looking for a connection that actually sticks. This slice-of-life vignette captures the aimless, aching restlessness of youth on a single, frantic New Year's Eve.
