Summary
In the aftermath of a devastating tornado that struck Xenia, Ohio, a group of bored and aimless residents drift through their decaying town. Two boys hunt and sell stray cats for cash to fund glue-sniffing binges, while their neighbors engage in increasingly strange and disturbing rituals. Harmony Korine's plotless debut is a fragmented mosaic of small-town American decay.
