A coming-of-age story set against the gleaming chrome and sweet harmonies of 1955—a world of sock hops, doo-wop, and drive-ins, infused with a razor-sharp modern edge.
Two small towns teeter on the brink of all-out war when Kelly, O Town’s all-American golden girl, falls head over heels for Zack, Queerville’s trans masculine heartthrob. But beneath the neon lights and sock hops, darkness lurks. A serial killer is picking people off one by one, and the towns themselves are hiding secrets far more sinister than anyone could imagine.
Their romance, born in stolen glances and jukebox serenades, challenges everything their towns believe in. But as the bodies start piling up and a serial killer stalks the quiet streets, Kelly and Zack uncover a twisted truth neither town is ready to face. Secrets long buried begin to surface, and the line between enemy and ally blurs with every heartbeat.
Zack is driven by their hatred for their father and plagued by a past they are unable to confront. In their ruthless pursuit of vengeance to find their brother’s killer, Zack meets Kelly, and something unfathomable occurs.
Kelly is your all-American pretty girl next door—a virgin square. Kelly is continually seeking beauty in everyone, despite having strict, traditional, homophobic parents. Including the one whose heart is shielded by the frigid façade that her parents forbid her from seeing. Their love was engraved in the stars, but a love so powerful could only be matched with force.
Emotional, cinematic, and rooted in character, a love letter to the golden age of the 50’s; a marriage to God and poodle skirts.
