Über diesen Titel

The last week of summer, 1985.

A heat wave rocks a sleepy New Jersey suburb as George Boyce and her family move into town from the Bronx. With one week before the start of school, George is drawn into a fragile swell of dangerous attractions – the pack of feral, heavy metal boys who spend their days lighting fires, and perfecting their disaffection – and the pretty, but cold, popular girls who offer an endpoint for her desire to be seen, and to be beautiful.

The latchkey freedom and lurking nihilism of mid-1980s suburbia grabs at the edges of George’s entry into this world, urging her into the vapid spaces of neon malls, dirty basements, and high school parties where everyone has experienced too much, too soon. She wanders through each scene of the suburban landscape endlessly observing and picking apart the potential angles, all while remaining a uniquely solitary, ghostly figure.
