- Tagline
- Of all delinquent pastimes, sexing is probably the most popular. They treat it as a joke - and many times as a spectator sport.
- Overview
- The lives of four down-on-their-luck characters. Surrounded by the vestiges of conspicuous consumption, they struggle to survive outside of society, fashioning their own aesthetics of poverty and devising strategies to navigate a surveillance society, evading or performing for cameras everywhere.
- How it feels
- Satirical, cynical, absurd and campy. Measured and needs your attention.
- About
- Class, isolation, identity, survival
- Content
- Strong sexual content and language. Mild violence. No gore.
- Note
- Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
