Welcome to the party

EVERYONE wants to be someone.

Layla Harrison wants to be a reporter.

Aster Amirpour wants to be an actress.

Tommy Phillips wants to be a guitar hero.

That is, until Layla, Aster, and Tommy find themselves with a VIP invite to the world of Los Angeles’s nightlife and are lured into a competition. The prize, or rather the target? Madison Brooks.

Just as their hopes begin to gleam like stars through the California smog, Madison Brooks goes missing. . . . And all of their hopes are blacked out in the haze of their lies.
