Coslada, near Madrid, Spain, October 2015. Hundreds of extras are trapped in a huge stage where they pretend with hysterical joy that they are celebrating a party that will be broadcast on television on New Year's Eve. But more than a week later, the clash between several staff members threatens to prolong indefinitely such a maddening nightmare.

VIBE

A hilariously bleak and chaotic look at the absurdity of show business. It's a frantic, anxiety-inducing descent into artistic ego and manufactured joy that feels both suffocating and darkly funny.
