A darkly comic, absurdist mystery that uses a disappearance and class/cultural collision to explore existential despair, self-loathing, and the performative nature of identity in the social media age.

A filmmaker facing an existential crisis goes on a vacation to a Mexican gay nudist beach, where he meets a social media celebrity who convinces him to collaborate with him on his new TV show. But one disappears and another embarks on a wild journey through Mexico City to find him.
