- Synopsis
- A couple of teenage factory workers spend their afternoons consuming chemical substances in a self-constructed shack. The ecstatic trips and the visions they experiment make them forget for a moment about their noisy industrial city life. But when Alexandra disappears right before his eyes, Lucas must deal with a corrupted system. His visions decay, just like the moster that imprisons them.
