Synopsis by Sandra Brennan

With a big tip-o'-the-hat to The Big Chill, this slacker comedy chronicles an all-night of several friends in their twenties. They have come to mourn the suicide of their friend. As the evening progresses, the friends talk about their pasts, presents and futures. Sex, death, life and race relations also get discussed and in between innumerable bottles of beer and ounces of marijuana smoke games get played. In the end the games turn more serious as the friends begin pairing off to spend their remaining hours seeking solace in each other's arms.
