In the grimy underbelly of Coney Island, four desperate souls chase fleeting moments of euphoria that spiral into consuming nightmares.

Each character's descent becomes a haunting testament to how the mind's hunger for transcendence devours everything it touches, leaving only wreckage in its wake.
