Plot synopsis
Two directors attempt to make a film about the 90s and hold auditions. Yet not all actors are prepared to share in their reality of transcendent extravagance. A postmodern universe engulfs them, and only total immersion—an immersion to the point of death—drags them into a new form and into a sort of product; but is it truly a product? Or is it a transition into something new—a dream?
