A grotesque, surreal body-horror comedy that weaponizes paranoia about class alienation and family betrayal through increasingly bizarre and unsettling transformations.

Bill Whitney is worried that he is different to his sister and parents. They mix with other upper-class people while Bill is more down to earth. Even his girlfriend seems a bit odd. All is revealed when Bill returns home to find a party in full swing.
