Four close friends, a beach, a fire, a trip to remember




"We're ready to take flight on our next big adventure, supplies packed, minds clear... we've even got appropriate footwear. Set. The world is our freshly cracked Bluff oyster. The air is charged with sherbet-zing anticipation. We're in formation. Ecstatic motion. Screaming down the hill towards the beach."




Moana is on the precipice of moving overseas when she discovers something about her closest friend that is too awful to bear and almost too terrible to express. Ethel's arrogant boyfriend, Isaac, found out and will do everything in his power to keep the secret. Ethel is busy playing her usual role, trying to keep the peace between the two opposing forces of Moana and Isaac. Meanwhile, the mercurial Henry is drowning in deep obsession with Moana; this might be his last shot before she leaves for good.




The friends embark on a twenty-four-hour psychedelic adventure into their own minds; their past and present lives are stripped bare, making way for the unexpected.

Will the experience bring them closer to each other and closer to understanding themselves... or will it devastate them?
