Why tonight?

  • Under two hours — there is still an evening on the other side of it.
  • It goes hard on violence — not a wind-down.

The story

A collection of intersecting short stories set in early 1980s Los Angeles, depicts a week in the lives of an assortment of socially alienated, mainly well-off characters who numb their sense of emptiness with casual sex, violence, and drugs.
