Over the course of a hot summer day in Los Angeles, the lives of 25 young Angelenos intersect. A skating guitarist, a tagger, two wannabe rappers, an exasperated fast-food worker, a limo driver—they all weave in and out of each other’s stories.

The result is an escalating showdown with echoes of a classic Western stand-off that erupts in brutality and violence.
