Seventeen-year-old Alex, feeling profoundly disconnected from her privileged suburban existence in the 2020s, embarks on a raw and introspective journey after a significant personal failure. Her narrative, a stream of consciousness filled with sharp critiques of contemporary culture, details her disillusionment with social media trends, the performative nature of celebrity (referencing figures like Olivia Rodrigo and current TikTok challenges), and the pervasive anxieties of her generation concerning climate change, political divisions, and the pressure to maintain an idealized online image. Over a few disorienting days, Alex drifts through her city, encountering individuals who embody the societal superficiality she detests, yet some of these encounters also offer unexpected moments of genuine human connection.
