Amid the neon heat of a city teetering between riot and midsummer lethargy, a lonely, overachieving valedictorian and a washed-up children's entertainer — each animated in radically disparate styles — find themselves fused into a single clay body after a botched fireworks stunt. Forced to cooperate to pursue their vastly different summer dreams, they must navigate citywide martial law, existential crises, and their uneasy coexistence inside one absurdly flexible form, discovering that what makes them outcasts may be their only chance at surviving—and redefining—who they become by summer’s end.
