In late-90s suburbia, a lonely teenager meets a girl at school who introduces him to a mysterious late-night T.V. show — a vision of a supernatural world pulsing beneath their own. As time goes on, however, questions begin to arise about why the show sometimes seems more real than their own lives. In the pale glow of the television, their view of reality begins to crack.

A hauntingly fragile performance captures the quiet terror of a life unlived under the flicker of a cathode-ray tube. This neon-soaked nightmare transforms nostalgic late-night television into a surreal, psychological trap.
