In an American society from a parallel dimension, a political retiree and corporate novice live separate lives of contentment. Citizens drink “champagne” of stale beer and lounge in “country clubs” that are actually run-down bars in a land where perceived luxury is the most important quality of life. Mort’s only concerns as an older man are polishing his gun collection and spending time with his woodsy neighbor, Ted. For the twenty-something June, she feels that rising up the corporate ladder is her ultimate goal, along with staying together with her distant boyfriend, Tom. When Ted becomes a militant follower of a political party, he begs Mort to join the revolution; at the same time, June is approached by a mysterious rebel who asks her to fight the government in order to save the populace. Neither characters question their ways of life until they simultaneously slip into an alternate realm of reality where the only answers to their questions are more questions. Through deconstructing their previous ways of thinking and their formations of identity, Mort and June embark on separate quests of self-discovery and artistic exploration. The only aspect of the film more important than the contradictory dialogue and style is the manner in which it will cause audience members to challenge their opinions after their viewing experiences.
