Overview

Early twenties Iris and Palmer never left their hometown. They work at the same restaurant, share the same bed, and both have a habit of drinking and driving. They run into Levi, a guy they used to know. They spend time with him and his cousin, Phoenix, in cars, backyards, and other people’s bedrooms. When Levi shares a dream he had with Iris things change between the four of them. The reality of the summer becomes faded, the parties die. The four end in a field of unified confusion.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A hazy, disorienting summer unfolds as four young people circle each other in cars and borrowed spaces, their reality becoming increasingly dreamlike and unstable. The film moves between moments of reckless intimacy and a creeping sense that something essential is slipping away.
