Lifelong friends navigate the infinitely incredible world of rave culture, journeying together (and sometimes, apart) into the PLUniveRse© in fantastical, philosophical, and third-eye-opening adventures--the likes of which have never been seen (or foretold.)
Festival Project™ is a multi-genre, mystifying and magical cross-genre series, set against the backdrop of modern rave culture-- combined with historical and futuristic elements-- across expansions of space-and-time, unifying with The Universal Consciousness in a multidimensional and explorative ensemble of Films, Episodic Series, Music Videos, Extended Playlists, and Concept Albums.
A perpetual symphony of artistic storytelling though a cavalcade of wonderful and whimsical characters along high-intensity, off-the-map adventures--showcased through Music, Film & Interactive Art Explorations--set upon the dreamlike actual reality of an unravelling fabric of time-and-space.
Enter The Multiverse: Anything Is Possible.
This explosive and expansive wave of enigmatic, chaos-colliding, charismatic [ and often comedic] kinetic energy, reflects a shared experience throughout all time in human connection; Journey beyond the unknown, to Worlds Within--and Without.
Everything is Everything.
The Festival Project Saga is a multi-media Music, Film and Television saga that offers a new perspective on the ever-changing and recently popularized culture of dance music; it touches on the history of the culture as a whole, as well as a variety of other societal issues this generation faces—friendship, connectivity, communication—the dawn of social media, America's education system and justice system, immigration, and emerging mental health and drug crisis—while also taking a look at a history of counter culture as a derivative of the rapidly evolving technology of today's society. Through its characters and storylines, we dive deeply into a conglomerate of generational growth and exponentially educational topics, lightheartedly touching tales of friendship, family through blood and through bond, and exploring fields, of Astrology, Philosophy.
Festival Trip- Two lifelong friends take a two-week-long trip across the country, to attend two major music festivals—one on the west coast (Among Aliens, in California), and one on the east (Ultimate Music Festival)
Gunther Ross- The more than interesting circus-act of a plug/one of Sala's romantic interests, who just happens to be in the same place at the same time, once Sala and Chava arrive in California.
Solomon Dominguez- Chava's “homie-lover-friend”, a DC native transplanted to LA who hustles and bustles the 3-job life to live the California dream—a surprisingly dedicated and loyal friend to Chava, who considers him the “king of fuckboys”—which, is not entirely untrue.
Johnny McEntire- An eclectic and friendly photographer who stumbles upon Sala during a vulnerable moment—a sweet, humble, and vibrant personality, Chava mostly dismisses him as just another victim of Sala's constantly-inconstant romantic gestures and affiliations.
Grace Williams (Chava's Super-Christian (but very sweet) Aunt)
Billy Williams- Chava's very dorky, southern Baptist uncle who can't help but throw in a (praise-jesus)

“Go climb broke-bitch mountain!”
ACT I- The Wedding Bashers/It's Festival Season
Inciting Incident—Plans to attend a destination wedding that Chava and her lifelong. long- distance best friend Sala, have been planning for almost a year are abruptly halted when Chava learns via a very eventful FaceTime call (‘Meet The Williams') that her +1 invitation had apparently only applied to her now-ex-fiance [whom her stuck-up family adored because of his abhorrent Christianity], and that the bride-to-be would not allow Sala to take his place on the guest list—as her vivid memories of Sala from Chava's engagement party are severely grotesque.
Flashback: Chava + Sonny's engagement party.
Chava: Yeah dude, they got all, mad-butthurt that I was bringing you instead of Sonny.
Sala: FUCK YOUR BIRTHDAY!
CHAVA: I'M SURE YOU WOULD IF YOU COULD, IF MY BIRTHDAY HAD A PENIS.
Sala: YOUR BIRTHDAY DOES HAVE A PENIS—IT'S YOU, DICK.
CHAVA: THEN SUCK ME, SALLY MAE.
CHAVA: Can't make a wish with no fucking candles, Kandace.
SALA: Huh. I would have thought there were candles just judging by hard you fucking BLOW, Bonnie!
CHAVA: Then drive off cliff, Clyde.

Chava: Dude, your energy is killing me.
Sala: What do I look like—Bob the Builder?
Chava: More like Wreck-It-Ralphed-All-Over-Yourself
Chava: Off limits. I'm the last person on earth you haven't fucked.
Chava: Of the super-massive black-hole that is your vagina? No. I just wish my camera had a better low-light filter so I had actual photographic proof of an 8th world wonder.
Chava: ‘No' Means ‘No'. [blows whistle] Get up.
Chava: I was—and you ruined it being a hoe—but I'm willing to look past that, because its a beautiful fucking day in Miami and we're about to get lit. C'mon. S'day one.
Sala: Day 1 of rave 2, I'm over it.
Chava: Hoe, I'm over you.
Sala: Get over me, then, bitch—
Chava: I already said I am. Get with it.
Sala: Get with this dick.
Chava: What's a dick without some balls, bro? Pussy.
Sala: How about I just stay here.
Chava: Pay here, stay here, bitch—this trip ain't free.
Sala: This trip ain't me. Raves are your thing. I'm not a “festival chick.”
Chava: You are for the next three days.
Chava: And counting. Get. Some. Motherfuckin' balls. Here, have some Jesus Juice.
[She extends her arm, holding the bottle in front of Sala]
Chava: Come on, man. I'm tryna see Cow Turds.
Sala: You're engaged to one.
Chava: Shut the fuck up and drink. Here, I'll have one with you.
The Epic Trip – ‘Girl—Meet World'. After breaking up with both her ex-fiance and her best friend, a depressed and anxious Chava decides to take a last-minute trip to another one of her bucket list destinations: The Epic Music Festival in Las Vegas, Nevada.
F*ckFest: The Origins (Prequel) 21-year-old Chava Hoffs, a longtime raver and lover of all things dance culture, finally convinces her bar-scene best friend to accompany her to a regional event in her area, ‘F*ckfest', Sala's first ever festival/rave where—to both her and Chava's surprise, she connects with other longtime friends she had no idea were immersed into the culture. Sala, having been “rave-retired” since entering her first serious relationship, becomes overly-excited and branches off on her own, reconnecting with her true self after spending too long in her own shell—she discovers her love for an up-and-coming new artist (‘Shluggy') who magnetizes her with a newly-created sound (‘PukeRock'—a play on “VomitStep”)
Vibes [Mini Series, Prequel]- A sequel-in-installments to the shenanigans following F*ckfest, where Chava returns to visit Sala and return to ‘one of her favorite venues', which now hosts GoF*ckYourself (GFY), the biggest summertime festival in the region.
Festival Trip II [First Sequel ]-
It's been a magical year and the breakup is over;

Samuel/Donnie- Sensei Samurai: An award-winning world-renowned music artist and specialty DJ, the soul-headliner of ‘Magic's Mountain art and Music Festival'
Daz- Sam/Donnie's Manager- (Antagonist)
Lazers, pyrotechnics, strobes, and confetti light the night sky as Sensei Samurai, a medium-build white guy sporting two long braids and a samurai cut (his signature style), dances atop the table which supports a state-of-the-art DJ set-up; The stage is massive, the crowd is wild--but he is at home--or rather, at work, and at the top of his game. He jumps down from the table, drinking from a red solo cup, before he picks up the microphone to speak to his audience:
Samuel: LET ME SEE YOU FUCKING JUMP.
He dances around, flailing his arms to gesture to the crowd, drinking again from his red solo cup . He moves to the beat of the music as he focuses to adjust the mixer, structuring a build-up. His manager watches from backstage, carefully eying his every move.
Samuel: --ARE YOU GUYS READY?
[He lights a ciggarette, sips from his cup again as he continues to mix. He nods along to the beat, grooving as he plots his next move, looking into the crowd with hunger in his eye.]
Dez: (speaking into a earpiece) Sammy, take it easy...
[He glances stage left, to where Dez is situated and watching him like a hawk; He nonchalantly shrugs, blowing out a plume of smoke into the air, decisively irritated with the instruction.]
Dez: (Cont'd): I mean it, chill.
[Samuel sticks his finger into his ear, wiggling it profusely--and dislodges the hidden inner-earpiece, eyeing Dez as he pulls up his headphones, deep in the mix; He takes a long drag from his ciggarette, master-minding as he feverously twists the knobs and dials of the mixer.]
Samuel (over the mic) NO CHILL MOTHERFUCKERS. [The music speeds as he prepares for the drop.]
Dez: (forgetting momentarily that he will not be heard) Sam, don't--!
[Too late. Samuel Drops the bass so hard, it hurts, ripping off his headphones and running straight into the crowd, head first to crowd surf. The crowd goes massively, insanely wild.]
Through the lens of Crystal's camera, we see a series of still photos, capturing Sam's wild plunge into the crowd, just off-center in the front row. Miami looks to her right, giving her a nod of approval; Crystal shoots her a hand signal for “ok”. Miami looks to her left, lifting an eyebrow and smirking at Serra, who bounces off-beat against a tall wooky gentleman who has his arms around her through the sleeves of a spirit hood, tilting her head from side to side as she poses for selfies. Miami happily sways to the motion of the music, putting one hand over the rail and pulling up her mask with the other, as she watches Samuel be lifted back onto the stage and take his place behind the decks. The set continues, the crowd, the lazers, and the effects go wild: The backdrop reads ‘SENSEI SAMURAI' His backup dancers are acrobatic ninjas.
Samuel: Thank you Magical Mountain, I Love You Guys!!
The crowd goes wild as Samuel exits the stage, ignoring Dez as he breezes past him.
Dez: (following after him) I thought I said, “No more crowd surfing, no more stage diving.”
Samuel: I thought you said that, too.
Dez: Do you recall “OhMyLanta?”
Samuel: (sarcastically) Oh, you mean that festival in Atlanta?
Dez: ‘Creative' would describe the legal team's very expensive, very strenuous tactical strategy which weaseled you out of a very serious lawsuit.
Samuel: What? When was this?
Dez: This was when you decided to stage dive wearing goth-pants and your chains got stuck in that kid's earholes
Samuel: They're called Tripp pants.
Dez: Oh yeah...what do you call them after mutilating a teenager with them?
Samuel: Tripp pants I can sell on eBay. I made that kid a star.
Dez: You made him a cripple.
Bass blasts through the christmas-lit forest, a festival set in the meadow against the lush and natural forest scenery; Attendees come-and-go to-and-from the lines of tents and out into the festival grounds, where DJs headline stages, dancers and performers interact with spectators, vendors practice their unique salesmanship, and the wild and true nature of ravers is unleashed.
Frozen breath leaks from the laughing mouths of three young individuals, running through the forest; Twigs crush and leaves crackle underfoot of their prancing and galloping feet, clad in combat boots, tennis shoes, and platforms, respectively. Ripped fishnets hug the thighs that sweep together rapidly, swooshing as the legs that bare them race forward; a pashmina trails behind one's back, acting as a cape of sorts.
A thud, in the darkness of the forest. Crystal and Serra continue forward, unaware their friend has fallen for a few short moments, leaving Miami behind.
Miami confusedly looks for the obstruction which caused her to trip, discovering under a pile of brush and leaves, a man (Samuel) lying face down on the ground; her eyes widen and she draws slightly back, frightened, before squinting and leaning in to get a closer look; She turns on a glow toy for added light, she pants heavily under her breath, shaking slightly as she brushes away debris and leaves, uncovering his head and shoulders, revealing he is wearing a mask. She examines him. His glasses are broken, lying on the ground under his face--His hair is wet; he appears dead.
Crystal: ...I told you not to wear those.
Crystal: Yo--*gasps* (she grabs Serra by the shoulder, holding her back.)
Serra: (She notices the body, under her pashmina, spirit hood, and glasses) Ohwhatthefuck. (she takes a few steps back)
Serra: Yeah, fuck that. Fuck this. (she wraps the pashmina tightly around her face) [muffled] Fuck this.
Crystal: ...Ami, we should get out of here.
Miami: We should help him.
Crystal: He may be beyond help, honey.
Serra: He's fucking dead. Whatthefuck. Fuck this!
Miami: (she looks at him closely, there are no signs of life. she checks for breathing with her hand.) ...I don't know. (she checks again, leaning in closer. she grabs his wrist to check a pulse)
Miami: Shut up, I'm trying to get a pulse (beat) ...he's super cold.
Miam: No, no...I don't think so. Crystal, come here--help me turn him over.
Crystal: Are you sure? What if he--wakes up and tries to--??
Miami: (urgently) What if it was you?
Crystal fishes for a flashlight and switchblade in her fanny pack, places the flashlight in her mouth and positioning the knife under her kandi cuffs. She cautiously inches forward.
Crystal: Serra, try to get some cell service so we can call for help.
The girls carefully turn him onto his back, wide eyed and bewildered. He is completely lifeless, clamy and pale--covered with dirt, and forestry. Miami continues to check for a pulse, shaking her head as he continues to appear dead.
Crystal: Do you feel anything?
Miami: …(shaking her head) I can't...he's like…(as she pulls up the sleeve of his hoodie and notices a familiar tattoo. she pauses for a moment, thinks, and then looks towards his head) Do you still have my mirror in your fanny pack?)
Crystal returns to her fanny pack, digging for the mirror. Miami carefuly leans in towards the man, examining him once more; she notices a necklace, also familiar--she thinks, as she moves to remove first the excess hair, and then the mask from his face, very carefully. She peels off his mask, immidiately shocked as she reckognizes his face--It is Samuel, who she knows as Sensai Samurai. She yeeps (imploded gasp, making Crystal look up; she, too recognizes him; she gasps. They look at eachother, then at him--then back to eachother.)
Miami: ...Give me your mirror.
(she holds the mirror under his nose--a subtle cloud of fog appears; he is, in fact, alive.)
Miami: He's breathing. Serra!
Crystal: ...This is Sensai Samurai.
Miami: (trying to convince herself) It probably just looks like him….
Crystal: I just took one-hundred close-up photos, dude--like, less than an hour ago--
Miami: Shhhhh! (she frantically begins to check his pockets) He's gotta have a wallet.
Crystal: What, you were going to save him--now you wanna roll him?
Miami: An ID. He's got to have an ID. (she frantically searches him) Hey Serra!
(Crystal lifts the other sleeve of his sweater, revealing a brightly colored wristband, and one singular kandi bracelet, which reads “Sensai” Simoltaneously, Miami has found something in one of the pockets--she produces a small box from one of the pockets of his cargo pants)
Crystal: Holy fuck. Look.
(she gestures the wrist band and bracelet.)
Miami: ...Artist's wristband. Fuck. It is him.
[Samuel is slumped lifelessly over both Crystal and Miami's shoulders, head hanging downward and hair flailing and dangling in his face as the girls struggle to support him. His oversized light-up sunglasses begin slipping, almost revealing his eyes.]
Girl:(looking over, concerned) ...Is your friend okay?
[He is clearly not. Serra slides her finger up his nose to adjust his glasses, eyeing the girl suspiciously.]
[Samuel's dead-weight pulls him towards the ground, as he slips; the girls struggle to readjust; he seems heavier by the minute. They all three stare back at the girl, awkwardly; Miami fakes an ‘everything's fine' smile, while Crystal stares blankly through her sunglasses and Serra shoots a look of dissatisfaction.
The three girls gaze in awe of Donnie, multitasking busily in the kitchen, hair pinned neatly atop his head with chopsticks, wearing a neatly-pressed (as in, freshly ironed) apron, as he removes one baking mit with his mouth and works about, happily consumed and bouncily, humming.
Crystal -You'd think he'd carry a better tune.
Miami- Cause you'd be belting melodies after waking up out of a drug-induced coma?
Crystal- No--I guess I'd open a bake shop in some random girls' kitchen.
Miami: We...we have some news for you.
Donnie: Oooh! Is it celebrity news?
Donnie: I hope it's juicy gossip.
Crystal: Believe me--it'll be the talk of the town.
[ She refills her wine glass first, then prepares two more, never breaking eye contact with donnie; His lighthearted excitement turns to slight confusion, as he furrows his brows,]
Miami: (sighs, taking his hand) Here, lets sit down.
Donnie: But, the macaroons--
Serra-What? That's what you're making?
Serra-...(to the side) maybe we should let him finish the macaroons, first...what if this like, fucks him all up.
Miami: No, it's time. I feel like we've already waited too long.
Serra-...I feel like he makes really good macaroons.
Miami: Yeah? Like grammy-award-winning macaroons?
-If by ‘Grammy', you mean my Grandmother would approve…
Miami: Your grandmother died of complications from diabetes.
Serra-...and you think macaroons had absolutely nothing to do with that?
[Crystal has already finished her first glass of wine, and begins to reach for the second glass, when Miami, out of the corner of her eye, catches her, snatching the glass from her gracefully, as she floats it to Donnie, sitting beside him, crossing her legs.]
Crystal- Oh, so you know that rule?
Donnie: I know some things.

Three girls at a camping festival find an incapacitated man in the woods and take him back to their campsite for safety—when one of the girls discovers that she recognizes the mysterious man, actually a headliner at the festival they're attending—two of the girls keep it a secret from their friend who would certainly take advantage of the situation. After discovering a “butt-load” of mind-altering substances on his person, Miami, the ring leader, makes a ‘judgement call' not to call the authorities, deciding instead to attempt to take him back to his trailer—however—when the girls haul him back to his campsite, they discover his manager, Dez, rifling through his belongings. When Samuel awakens, he has no memory of himself—and so a journey begins: a test of friendship, and a race against the clock.

[Samuel is slumped lifelessly over both Crystal and Miami's shoulders, head hanging downward and hair flailing and dangling in his face as the girls struggle to support him. His oversized light-up sunglasses begin slipping, almost revealing his eyes.]
Girl:(looking over, concerned) ...Is your friend okay?
[He is clearly not. Serra slides her finger up his nose to adjust his glasses, eyeing the girl suspiciously.]
[Samuel's dead-weight pulls him towards the ground, as he slips; the girls struggle to readjust; he seems heavier by the minute. They all three stare back at the girl, awkwardly; Miami fakes an ‘everything's fine' smile, while Crystal stares blankly through her sunglasses and Serra shoots a look of dissatisfaction.
The three girls gaze in awe of Donnie, multitasking busily in the kitchen, hair pinned neatly atop his head with chopsticks, wearing a neatly-pressed (as in, freshly ironed) apron, as he removes one baking mit with his mouth and works about, happily consumed and bouncily, humming.
Crystal -You'd think he'd carry a better tune.
Miami- Cause you'd be belting melodies after waking up out of a drug-induced coma?
Crystal- No--I guess I'd open a bake shop in some random girls' kitchen.
Miami: We...we have some news for you.
Donnie: Oooh! Is it celebrity news?
Donnie: I hope it's juicy gossip.
Crystal: Believe me--it'll be the talk of the town.
[ She refills her wine glass first, then prepares two more, never breaking eye contact with donnie; His lighthearted excitement turns to slight confusion, as he furrows his brows,]
Miami: (sighs, taking his hand) Here, lets sit down.
Donnie: But, the macaroons--
Serra-What? That's what you're making?
Serra-...(to the side) maybe we should let him finish the macaroons, first...what if this like, fucks him all up.
Miami: No, it's time. I feel like we've already waited too long.
Serra-...I feel like he makes really good macaroons.
Miami: Yeah? Like grammy-award-winning macaroons?
-If by ‘Grammy', you mean my Grandmother would approve…
Miami: Your grandmother died of complications from diabetes.
Serra-...and you think macaroons had absolutely nothing to do with that?
[Crystal has already finished her first glass of wine, and begins to reach for the second glass, when Miami, out of the corner of her eye, catches her, snatching the glass from her gracefully, as she floats it to Donnie, sitting beside him, crossing her legs.]
Crystal- Oh, so you know that rule?
Donnie: I know some things.
Under The Mask —A superstar DJ and his best friend embark on a series of festivals under cover as non-celebrity citizens to first-handedly experience the other side of his world.
Grandma's Girl- A funeral turns into an accidentally epic week-long house party, after the ‘favorite grand child' becomes disappointed in the traditional send-off given by the family; While grieving and going through her late-grandmothers belongings, Serra discovers journals and an old phonebook, containing the life and times of her wildly adventurous grandma and her close friends—when she realizes that none of the people from her grandmother's life ‘before the family' are in attendance of her funeral (or even aware of her passing), she links up with her best friends to organize a ‘proper goodbye'. All heaven breaks loose, when ‘ravers of old' begin showing up to pay their respects to Silvia—things get a little out-of-hand when the gathering explodes due-to-word of mouth, as it turns out Grandma Silvia had a few more connections than expected—and they've all come from near-and-far to say their goodbyes.

Greetings from the North Pole
Maybe we can make a deal;
If my heart is made of steel
You can't steal it—I can feel it
The world is money hungry
The world is simply starving
The world is just evolving.
Cause I've been going crazy
And I've been feeling lazy
And I've been thinking lately
That just maybe, someday maybe
I wonder what you'd expect
Carbohydrates killed the queen
With a baby on your back and—
There I was—looking at myself from above,
All the love in the world;
Just a lonely little girl
Never got out of bed, that day:
But I went away somewhere,
And there I was—looking at myself from above,
All the love in the world,
Just a lonely little girl
“why are you waking me up?”
And sometimes, it's too much
Too much is, never enough
I've never been in love (with me)
But I've always been in love (with you)
It wouldn't have been the death of me.
How I crossed white lines
How did you find me, here
How did you know, I would
Once you finally showed me the road?
I've seen both the frog, and the toad;
You've already left me exposed,
You just have to live more,
And once you've been through the cycles, you could be
Created after pleasure...
With immense imploding pressure
And I'll probably run for President—
Just like I tend to run from everything; not because I want to do it, but because I have to...
And just as I run from everything,
As is the vicious cycle of life, unrepeated.
I should have seen it coming, when he kicked my puppy—I didn't, but my mother did, and it might have been the same day. If not, it was definitely on the same porch—the same porch where...my adolescence began, and ended.
When your spirit is broken
There is no cure—when you suffer in silence
When you've seen all the violence
The dragon I'm chasing is me,
Translucent and transparent
I am the thing that happens when you
I been waking up randomly,
I'm vanishing without a trace
And maybe I just hate this place,
I been waking up randomly
Avoiding my eyes in reflections
I fell in love at a festival
She came to dance, she was solo oh-oh
...took my hand, sack let's go- oh—oh-oh
This ‘tingle' I get is more than
The moments I never forget
The stories you never will tell—
This is hell, you're not dreaming
I never planned to leave this planet
Paying the price for this
I don't mean to write this
I can't trust myself anymore
I can't trust this world anymore
Phased out, going about in this
Town like I'm drowning in
Or rather, a diamond in the rough
What you want is perfection
I just like who you are and thats—
I have nothing but love to give, love
I didn't think I'd live this long
And it was longer than I thought
Phased out, going about in this
Town like I'm drowning in
Do you wanna know what it's like to be lonely like me
I can tell you better than show you
Once I get to know you good luck
Donder (Donny) “we'll just call you Donny”
Uhhh...Because...we found you in the woods.
“You know, like—the wild thornberrys”
“Uhhh—wasn't Donny found in the Jungle”
“Uhhh—isn't the jungle just a denser version of the woods?”
“I guess. It's like an earth-remix”
Miami wells up—Crystal jumps up excitedly
And I've been stuck on Abbot Kinney,
Thinking about Will Rodgers and
Thinking that I'm a dodgers fan—
Of everything I need to be:
And if the world were watching me
She'd think she was herself.
I was never sleeping, I'm just here
And I was never reading, I just
Put the bookmark where I left off...
And as it dries in my palm—
I know it won't take long until I'm
Drifting back into—sifting back into
You'll know when you've reached the promised land.
‘It's time to fall in love...with yourself.'
The world has the most to learn from its elders and it's youth—fever disrespect the sometimes even subtle wisdom of a child or your elders.
That's what I like in my face
Drop that shit, don't make me wait
Make me dance off all this waste
I like chocolate, give me cake
Wednesday mornin' wake-n-bake
Star Jones—Oprah—Ricky lake
Which is real and which is fake?
Pick the right one, no mistake
“White girl: can I touch your hair? Is it fake??”
[interlude- two friends at a festival//a phone call]
“Where the fuck are you?”
“I'm by the—WAIT—hello?!”
“Yo. Where the fuck is she?”
“I don't know man, probably lost in the sauce...”
Sample Lost In The jungle//Kendrick Boo Boo
Friends that say that they “gotchu” and then don't
Nobody gives a fuck about you—
And if you can't remember
Make a habit of forgetting
Cause you're just another
Just to take back all my fucks
Throw it over my shoulder
This is the last chance you get
There's no pleasure, no smiles—
I'm just driving for miles

I hope you're okay with the character I based off you. I'm not going to copy the story exactly (cause it's a movie, duh) so—I came up with the story that your character runs the kitchen of a classy gourmet 5-Star Chinese restaurant in Utah that has an all-Mexican staff of mostly illegals; my character is a CO at a youth correctional facility in remote Alaska—I felt like those two extremes would play funnier on camera than to replicate our actual situations. I also made them not parents, because I would rather take the whole issue of parenting and raving into a completely separate film idea, I'm thinking of calling it

Sala, having been “rave-retired” since entering her first serious relationship, becomes overly-excited and branches off on her own, reconnecting with her true self after spending too long in her own shell—she discovers her love for an up-and-coming new artist (‘Shluggy') who magnetizes her with a newly-created sound (‘PukeRock'—a play on “VomitStep”)

CHAVA'S ENTRY DANCE scene
Here we meet Chava Hoffs and Sala Emillio; Two life-long long-distance best friends who love eachother--for the most part--for better or worse.
Sala (Pinky) and Chala (The Brain) are planning a tropical mexican vacation to a destination wedding Chava's been invited to as an excuse to celebrate Chava's upcoming birthday (held the same weekend as the wedding) in style--However, when Chava's exclusively classist family alerts her that her plus-one invitation only extended to her on-again-off-again fiance and absolutely excludes Sala, they desperately search for another way to escape their mundane and excruciatingly boring circumstances. Chava internet-searches events around her birthday and finds that there are two music festivals within the same week--running the numbers, she concludes that this alternative plan would actually cost less than the original--”so why not?” The young women keep their escapade-to-be a complete secret, disguising all the preliminary details as “wedding planning” They plan to ‘meet in the middle', Los Angeles being centrally located to both their respective homes. They meet at LAX excitedly and reuinte in happy (and drunken) tears.
Chava wants to visit old friends and reminisce as a “wannabe tourist” in an all-too-familiar city, which she used to call home--she's built a list of things to do and prepared an itinerary for the week; Sala wants to get riddegy-wrecked sun-up to sundown; Worlds collide as somewhat by-the-book Chava nervously nativages around, typically babysitting Sala and often falling victim to being steered off-course by her shenanigans. Within their first few moments under the California moonlight, Sala's smartphone helps her discover that she has a nearby group of friends--conveniently banded-together by her circus act “master plug”, who is devastatingly in love with her. They spend night one of the first festival tracking him down--Sala finds herself already exhausted by Sala's timing and drunken unsubtlety (“My friend's a COP!”) They finally meet him at the end of the first day, they allow him to tag along--until he becomes almost-suddenly dysfunctionally inebriated and Chava must make a fight-or-flight decision to leave him behind, after he begins drawing attention to their vulnerable crew, and she is approached at random by a mysterious character in a gas station convenience store, where she appears to be the most sober person.
On day two, after running at top-speed to catch the shuttle, Sala drunkenly makes friends with a group of young people (fresh out of high school), who to Chava are quite “wookish”, but she plays along anyway. However, by the time they exit the shuttle and Chava has finallybecome comfortable being invited into their squad; Chala decides to ditch them--unknowing that they will re-meet later in the night.

Within the silence of solace and solitude, the Goddess awakens; as she rises from within her chamber, a blackened curse is broken—a new day is born, to let light live.
Be it, a fleeting demon—met in the wandering eye of a man who love could not keep, but would always find—a wish, a wisper; Windblown kisses beneath the neck, and the eye that watches, waits, and knows not yet what lies in the wake of love.
When I was younger, my mother would always tell me that she wasn't mine—she'd tell me over and over to the point that I would cry; and then she'd laugh, taunting me, and outwardly ask “why would you believe that? Of course I am your mother.” And oh, the joy my tears had often brought her—how my pain, turned pity would make me mourn, the child I never was.
It's hard to see yourself
When you become a different body
All the eyes that look upon you
And something miraculous has happened.
I can't wait to leave it and I won't take it from myself again—
But sometimes wish that another would
So that the weight of the world would let go my soul
If only patiently I wait,
The cause and purpose of life
The seeds of my dreams were planted and can now become trees;
Not weeping willows but infinite redwood evergreens.
And one day, this will all be a dream—and when you wake up to the light, you will forget yourself again.
The longest ego death that ever was,
But we're all culture vultures...
There's some kind of madness
A shade of red begins to drift into the music of my
Contagiousness of carelessness
The sickness of the nation
Making victims out of men is
Peering at tops of pyramids
Knowing that you built them
And the “God” that you're addressing is the inside of your soul
Wholesomeness is fleeting
People only want attention and
They'll take away your goodness
If you let them take your time.
What of the world's inside our minds
What of the worlds we've created
This is a universe all of your own
Once you find your own center, you've made it.
In a perfect world, we heal the sadness
In another time, we all unite
In another lifetime everyone is happy dancing
In a perfect world, we see the light
I sit upon a porcelain throne,
And as silence fell about
In the sunken chaotic jungle of treasured beauty,
I awaited an answer to a question I never asked, but was told to wait for in a silent other language.
I don't need to make wishes—
All my friends were with me that day
The reason I fast and I pray
Always take that with you,
The heavens will forgive you,
Imperfections are only what make you a human.
I see everything I need to see,
End up everywhere I need to be
Not always, but pretty much always
All my days wasted playing games,
All my days wasted on fame?
(And that's what she asked for)
(“Be careful what you wish for”)
I told the child inside of me,
For everything that I want, will come; And everything that I am—
You should have gone to bed with your friends,
Let's keep keeping secrets
You should have gone to bed with your friends,
Let's keep keeping secrets
“I'll never repeat this.”
“I'll never repeat this.”
And none was lost, that day, but some found—I had cried with the child within, and heard the call of my spirit, which could not be forgotten—as she screamed in her fury and wondered her “why am I like this?” And soon she would know, because all again was one.
And then she said, “how bad will it it be” “not bad,” said I “we have the key.”
‘And now I lay me down to sleep...
I pray the lord my soul to keep—
If I should die before I wake;
“I work in the morning”, said I
“Dumb girl”, said she—and then we laughed together, because we are as one.
If only I were free to be I, alone, forgotten and at simple, eloquent peace;
Loneliness is the devil's advocate--but solitude will bring one to certainty, when time is of the only aching ease as and forgiveness is not needed//you can only answer to yourself, and to yourself—the sureness of your being becomes whole I'm certain thought, forward motion—steady gravitation towards things you love.
Love is an undeniable phenomena/-more so than sound, sight; more than a feeling or knowing, even—it is an essence. It is not only in the heart that love is born, but in the entirety of most—but not all—woman and man. To learn to love is not but a condition of humanity, but a connection to the spirit, soul,—it is part of our purpose and presence to love—a blinding,lay delicate piece of our nature. Love is more than just romance, relations with other—love is an element with which, is a thread woven into the fabric of our being in this reality. Simply stated, in fact—love is a fact.
For I could not fathom to end my fast, before drifting into and wandering past realms unknown to the sleeping and dead—
Who walk amongst life as though living wholly,
Mouths agape and eyes amasked, absorbed in the world of phone.
Blindfolds hiding a hateful and bloodshot third eye—
I awake to the sound of a city to which I am anchored in spirit;
Something awaits at the boardwalk, however, the writer's mind is readily waiting to work,
Greedily consuming what little, precious time is left
Of the freedom that lies in the true joy of temporary, blissful and,
wishfully permanent joblessness.
I got debt up to my eyeballs
I got debt up to my eyeballs
I got debt up to my eyeballs
I got debt up to my eyeballs
I got debt up to my eyeballs
I got debt up to my eyeballs
But my eye's wide open (open)
She ask can she have it back
I said “it don't work like that”

Now this is just what I can do.
I don't know what I'm really searching for—
But I think I want mooree...and that's the answer, that's the key.
Somethings not right; it might just be me. My whole life of hurting, the world's hurting me. I can't seem to escape this new catastrophe; somethings calling me
In-n-out of meetings all day
But that's not really my thing;
Quick fling for some bling without a diamond ring
And you can ask my ex, is we fuckin?
Put me on the guillotine—
I was fuckin doing everything
Didn't have the time for no
Explaining why the fuck I go and listen to sublime
Pay attention to me harder and
Lose it been Losin it since before it was a hit, and I admit—
I miss the shit I came up on,
I miss the days where I had fun and
P.S.- yes I'm the best at passing a test
Don't need to study the material
Is really all here—just pay attention

If we learn to love the law

I ain't gonna lie about it
Not even gonna try about it
I ain't gonna cry about it
I ain't gonna cry about it
Fuck a blue eyed snow bunny
The reason I'm sneezin isn't the season
I'm not looking for no-body
And my psychiatrist understands
But he ain't supplying me
Money will help you succeed
And I don't give a fuck about your code
Be my witness: I don't get this shit
I'll rip this shit into pieces
Cause I'm trying to look decent
“You already call me ‘The Gov'...” (8)
They already call you The Dove

My energy—trying not to look
Thought you could depend on me?
Not your everyday listener—
It takes a lot to be a human
All this gloom, and doom and,
Sometimes boomin ain't enough
It's tuff out here, people go it rough
This kids all up in their business
And when you're in the business—
The world is your witness—-get this
They study your wealth, your fashion, your fitness...
Do you get this equation?
Me either; now either we're too old, retarded, or neither—
Every teacher's a preacher for either
His passion, or her pocket
And it's a horror they have access to
Technological catastrophe
Disastardly wasting space
As we race towards a race war—
I'm just trying to rave more
It's hardcore, but it's never boring
I'm ignoring these morons,
They got me snoring in here,
And the Northern Lights don't look right under too much light
Got me gazing in the night
Like I might find my flight
Honestly I'm just looking for anything
Been on you since way back when
Take me down that road again
I'm so confused and just using
That was my other breaking point
Cause I already boiled over
It was over—I was sober when he was throwing elbows;
Oh you felt those—pulses—
Speaking, leaking into dreams I wasn't dreaming, you were scheming and it haunts me
How many—I could count 3 of your friends round the bends of my tent,
Can't take a hint, but the bad came and went when the Good vibes—
Everything is like a fairytale
But my fairy tail is caught between my legs—
Like the plague of someone's fingertips had me amazed;
What a strange blessing—we're estranged but I remember cutie pie's eyes, cause those were the days—
No “rage”, really, just space-aged waves of sound surrounding us and Bass come through the ground
And tenacity to rap about it
But ain't never doubted it, either
Don't know if I was delirious...
But I'm curious, and have trust issues so...
Did I blow this whole thing out of proportion?
Take a pass, have a laugh
It's just added to the list
Of things I'm pissed off about
I like light-skinned he's-and-she's
Come on, man; if you let me love you, I can—I'd take anybody's hand and show them the promise land,
My tastes are confusing and I'm losing hope
Born in the wrong body—I cannot be this black—it's a straight up attack on how much I lack—in culture.
Not a vulture, but not exactly a dove;
I just love peace signs and peace finds you, wherever you let it
I find it with paper-to-pen
Writing in rhymes is fine—
I'm Dr. Suess with a noose around his neck
Living paycheck to paycheck—
I regret to inform you I can't preform in this reformed prison cell.
If this is prison—well, Hell—
Pin me up in a cell so I can tell all my friends
“Hey, I'm just like you!”
“We don't like you—you wear blue.”
“You could too—if you do what you're supposed to.”
And I'm supposed to be somebody with authority, but horribly I think about what whores would be without the men who made them...

Can't be stuck with people who express this shit out loud
I'm not proud—that's just kind of how it is
You're about 100 years old:
And I had that job before you did.
I don't give a fuck what you do, dude
I'll keep abusing this power
I become something new...
Your whole generation can
You be you, and I'll be me
I'll pay my rent some other way
I only came to work today
I'm liable to read it to you,

Never lived outside a cage
Never get respected and that's
Didn't see know one one i know
But I knew just where to go
(Front and center, do not enter)
Throwing elbows breaking necks
All the children getting wrecked
(It was almost turning winter)
So I went back to my tent
Shooting stars were heaven sent
Knew I couldn't pay my rent
But I had tickets to event
I went hungry I was lonely
Wearing T-shirt, I'm no phony
“All these catty girls can blow me”
Then I almost fell asleep
And this secret I should keep
Cause I haven't said a peep
(I should probably keep it to myself)
Then I heard a strange sound
I heard footsteps on the ground
Next thing you know I was surrounded
(Shit fucked Up my mental health)
Dancing shadows cutting shapes
Should have filmed it, made a tape
But there was really no escape... what happened next was mental rape (echo)
Spoken (man's voice): Yo, what the fuck is this shit?
Man: This fuck shit—“dancing shadows...?” “Getting raped?”
Me: look, okay—this one time—
Man: nobody gives a flying fuck. People want to dance. People want to have fun, this sounds depressing as shit.
Me: ...it was fun and depressing—
Man: cut that shit out, keep it positive.
Sample: (playing on phone) keep it positive, legally blonde

Time-elapse of a stationary trash can—at the end, is a person just staring into the camera.

WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO YOU?
Red lips lie but I wear pink
I see red and then I panic
You don't have my back, go back
Likeness is what you attract
So finish cleaning up your act
If you're flaky I can't take it
I like dancing when I'm naked
(And I'm by myself, you guessed it)
All my love I can't express
But I keep it in my chest
Shut it off I need some rest
I can feel it in my chest
If you ask if I'm the best
I'll say “no” I need a nest egg
I don't drink much but I would keg
I would ask but I would not beg
(Wait—What was I saying?)
Get back to where you once belong
Granny panties never thongs
You called me ho but you were wrong
My best friend is, but we get a long maybe that's where I went wrong
Why I'm writing all these songs
Betrayal never fades away
[Sample: Festival Trip—scene where Chava finds Solomon in bed with Sala]
Got some bags under my eyes,
Apparently, I'm on a mission—and the choice wasn't mine
Looks like it's the place and the time
In on this signal they're sendin me
About who I'm supposed to be,
I'll take it as a compliment from now on, and from now on—I'll put this crown on, and drown on,
In the divinity giving me humanity;
The capacity to be just me.
Eventually, evidently I may be what it takes to be
And be the change I wish to see
Acurately...eventually, maybe
But for now I'm focusing on me:
People are speaking; I'm listening
And everything makes sense so far—just another scar on my heart, and not my arm.
Intention to harm is far from my mind—Self-destruction or re-construction; to which, I am blind.
It feels fake to me—drip dropping hints into a lake to me—playfully playing back the feeds of things The Cloud had sprouted just from seeds?
Experimental mental challenges designed to find the ones with minds seeking the more divine; It's more than fine if these voices are really mine, it's all the time. It's all a game, it's all in my mind.
I just have to accept this is my life,
With a life that reflects-
My constant struggle and strife—

Attention deficit disorder;
My auntie a hoarder but I'm borderline everything:
Insta makes me brain hurt
And waiting makes the game worse
I'm sleeping in the same hearse
I was cursed first, then the sun burst
And barely be getting buzzes
I always be missing busses,
I always have trust issues
Just trying to adjust issues
supposed to buy some new shoes
Give me an offer I can't refuse
Give me a bottle I can reuse
Give me a man who cannot abuse
Beating me up and leaving me confused
Yes I still remember last issues
But the world is pretty trashy
I want the presidency, so
I eat weight and then I gain it
Clarissa, I can't explain it
I wax it and then I wane it
Phone Home like I'm Little Wayne, bitch
I say ‘bitch' but then I hate it
I hate bread but then I ate it
I love cheese and so I grate it
I love food and so I plate it
Love DRuGs I love getting faded
But lately the world is jaded
I stay sober—found a four leaf clover
This instagram is closure
Because he took your house keys
(Choking sounds, gasping for air)
A doctor who won't lock me up
A friend who won't block me out for keeping up with my fitness
Nobody really understands my self destruction plan
But I don't really ‘need' a man,
Thinking about getting dread
I don't need headphones I need
‘I want to hold your hand'
Build me a church and steeple and steal from the people
Avoiding them flirts, the worst
Laying me down in a hearse
Live my whole life in reverse—
The world is George Lucas's first,
From something to nothin,
Somebody come help break this
Demons in my universe—verse
Remember you asked who came first—first
Bitch I'm gonna be famous
Bitch I'm friends with the greatest
Sun and the Moon and the stars were my latest design
Maybe because they thought I'd attack
Maybe cause I'm stacked with knowledge—I acknowledge I wanna go back to college to polish it
I don't know what to call this shit;
Trying to be an activist but I legit don't have the time or a spare fucking dime
Bus lines wasting my time

I don't write songs all of the time,
But when I do, I use blue and my

Gotta be myself, that's whack
Can't fake facts: I've been hacked
For no reason, that's stupid
I hope google plans how to explain how they made me insane picking at my brain—
Need my GPS or I digress, I'll leave my fucking phone at home—
Cause I can find north, of course—-
West is the beach and this beached whale sprouted legs and they can
It might be awhile to apply my airline miles,
But I got different styles or writing
I'm sick of fighting with myself—
“No, you've already written too much about such and such, so—that would expose those who only hope you turn up your nose and, put a gun down your throat”
Started working on my suicide note,
And I wrote about how, now, I can't even go around without the sound of the 3 people dragging me down in my stupid
U had me at “tell you what.”
Got an hour and a half in Hollywood land
Night didn't go as smoothly as I planned
Can't even stand this planet
I'm just gonna dance, bitch
Everyone wants to get lost in the sauce
Everyone, everyone wanna be BOSS
Everybody ignoring my weirdness
I guess I should have tried out the guest list
Sample: this dick ain't free
I'm Savin the raven from playin
I have an hour glass figure
It's hotter in here than I thought mi cannot
Sometimes, I just want to witness
Keeping protected my heart—
I didn't want to play games
You'll find me if you like me, likely
And finally, we'll have the time
To sing about these colors
How many others are there?
I would swear by my colors
I'll still try to find the light
I won't turn of the lights
But I'll turn a blind eye to
Paint me in shades of green
Iridescence is the essence I'm
Welcome to the center of attention
Did I mention I love this shit
Did I mention I'm illegitimate
Did you know, I'm an alien
Can't you see I don't fit in
People say i getting thin—
Really, Fin—what world you in
Easy peasy lemon squeezee
Easy peasy lemon squeezee
Easy peasy lemon squeezee
Sample rent—la vie boheme—
Butters: lululu, I got some apples

SALA “I don't give a fuck about birthdays.” (Echo)
“Cool, get the fuck out.”
Hang with your little friends
They're not you're friends tho,
It's okay I will spend it by my self
Actually it's probably 17, but that don't mean a thing—
Eskimo —cause I watched be a hoe
Girl you think I didn't know?
Let it go—blow over, I've been sober
Never mind, I run in side
Defied the laws of gravity,
whose this to my side, though?
I don't like how vibe though
This silly dude can ride, tho
Don't wanna go to the show
They gonna do surprise show
I'm just glad I came today
I'm just fine, cause I know the answer
[“But first—“ Billy maize]
Auntie adriene: how was your music concert?
/ / / - ////////////////////////(1/32)
At the end, a loud thud, air brakes and an “uff”
Can't keep my mouth shut had to keep leaking
Can't keep a friend I can trust
Probably should have spent that $85 two times;
I live in certainty, right?
Likeness is what I attract, right?
I attracted the massive planet with glasses—
Four more days fastin, could have turned me to ashes
But faces? Just call me the mind's eye.
Closed mine today, I don't mind, I—
Codeswitching isn't my mind's mind
I was just living by my time
Apply the rules of blackness—
“A closed mouth don't get fed”
And a bad vibe don't get in bed with me—
Attracted to honesty, sobriety—
Someone who could keep an eye on me, but now I see you just brian's sidekick like I am to Annie—
They would probably fuck and end up on some, bad-mad-sad luck
Oh what the fuck, I keep bringing it up?
Probably shouldn't have treated me like a chump when I wished I could run against Donald Trump
Needed a friend like old Humpty Dumpty but,
Unfortunately he just wanted
And Ciara isn't in the house.
Heard someone was in the market for a spouse,
You found it—not a mouse but obsessively lost pounds just so you wouldn't worry an ounce.
Not a cougar, but pouncing and bouncing between options—
Went skateboard shopping and lost it, could have spent a deposit,
But I'm positive patience is the only tangible object I need.
And I don't need medicine;
And maybe weed, now-and-then—
I don't need more than one
I just need me some sunny days,
It's crazy I got all these plans, and, songs and words for days
I can't escape it, not a phase
I'm amazed, been writing since the second grade and I'm afraid
I just stopped cause love popped off,
Got popped and stopped from talking
Had to move cause he was stalking
Got too cold to keep on walking blocks—*stop*—(...)
Wait, no, this is my song.
Haha, I just got off on the wrong
Spoken: god dammit...maybe I should put the bus song after this one.
And they watched me be a pendulum
For hours and hours I swung
All This music stuck in my head
All these hours stuck in my bed
That's what they all said
Can hear you all saying it
[I need to be alone with my thoughts.]
I need me like two of these
I get curled up in my rug
Your part of the city is yours
(At least for some hours)
There's no really stopping it
Life is like moving train, you're riding it
Singing songs of love in your mind
Release the demons you have
Just clear your mind (echo)
Spoken: “Where do you see yourself in five years?”
Sometimes I'm the Hillary of my social circle
the unelected, the second best,
and very honestly I'm a real fuckin' pushover.
Goin' to bed at 10am has never felt better.
I'm just a bed punk Savin up through my last winter...
I keep in time with a job to scrape by, and that kind of thing.
and I cry sometimes because I can't stand the wait, cause I'm leaving...
The perfect love, the perfect way
to have the same old habits, the same clichés
Tortoise-shell glasses make me feel pretty famous,
but you can't take 'em with you and ‘this is the end 'cause...
Getting off at 8 AM has never felt better
I'm just an adult looking forward to my next summer—
Bot gunna miss no friends, Not gunna miss this town, below 0 degrees
but I'll be back to rule the world if you vote for me.
Sleepin' in till 10am has never felt better,
living as if it's always summer
We won't keep in time or remember our lines when we try to sing,
but we'll be back to rule the world when we find meaning in our suffering.

Chava: you should probably wear more Kandi
Sala: ehhh, nahhh—I'm like,.,I'm good, I think.
Chava: uhhhh—you sure, dude? I know you're used to Utah but, this is kind of a big event. There's gonna be a lot of actual ravers, instead of, you know—Mormon girls with issues and undercover cops...with issues.
Sala: yeaaaah, I know, I'm good.
Sala: yeah. Remember that time I started trippin out hard during Morty Mcflyy at SaltyFlat's, and I was wearing a bunch of Kandi—
‘Horchata' -Festival Trip Excerpt
Chava looks decently confused. Sala slumps beside her.
Chava: Gross. It sounds worse than it tastes.
Chava: Tastes like Cinnamon Toast Crunch farts, coming out of a ghost.
Sala: Fuck you, bro-change your own mind—horchata's the shit. I fucking love horchata.
[a passerby stops in his tracks, excitedly]
Wooky guy: FUCKYEAH. HORCHATA IS MY LIFE!
Wooky guy: I fucking love these guys, I've seen them over 27 times in the last YEAR.
Chava: They've played 27 whole times?
Wooky guy: (goes on rant, shows weird tattoo) horchata for LIFE!!! Oh my god, will you trade kandi with me?!

F*ckFest: The Origins (Prequel) 21-year-old Chava Hoffs, a longtime raver and lover of all things dance culture, finally convinces her bar-scene best friend to accompany her to a regional event in her area, ‘F*ckfest', Sala's first ever festival/rave where—to both her and Chava's surprise, she connects with other longtime friends she had no idea were immersed into the culture. Sala, having been “rave-retired” since entering her first serious relationship, becomes overly-excited and branches off on her own, reconnecting with her true self after spending too long in her own shell—she discovers her love for an up-and-coming new artist (‘Shluggy') who magnetizes her with a newly-created sound (‘PukeRock'—a play on “VomitStep”)
Vibes [Mini Series]- A sequel-in-installments to the shenanigans following F*ckfest, where Chava returns to visit Sala and return to ‘one of her favorite venues', which now hosts
Festival Trip II- After reconciling, Chava and Sala unite again to journey to uncharted territories—after Chava is invited along as a journalist to cover artists belonging to an up-and-coming record label based in Alaska, she invites Sala as a tag-along, knowing that her “weird hoe-magic” will attract—as always—even more interesting personalities and circumstances than she could dream to on her own.

Solomon Dominguez- Chava's “homie-lover-friend”, a DC native transplanted to LA who hustles and bustles the 3-job life to live the California dream—a surprisingly dedicated and loyal friend to Chava, who considers him the “king of fuckboys”—which, is not entirely untrue.
Johnny McEntire- An eclectic and friendly photographer who stumbles upon Sala during a vulnerable moment—a sweet, humble, and vibrant personality, Chava mostly dismisses him as just another victim of Sala's constantly-inconstant romantic gestures and affiliations.

ACT I- The Wedding Bashers/It's Festival Season
Inciting Incident—Plans to attend a destination wedding that Chava and her lifelong long distance best friend Sala, have been planning for almost a year are abruptly halted when Chava learns via a very eventful facetime call (‘Meet The Williams') that her +1 invitation had apparently only applied to her now-ex-fiance [whom her stuck-up family adored because of his abhorrent Christianity], and that the bride-to-be would not allow Sala to take his place on the guest list—as her vivid memories of Sala from Chava's engagement party are severly grotesque.

Greetings from the North Pole
Maybe we can make a deal;
If my heart is made of steel
You can't steal it—I can feel it
The world is money hungry
The world is simply starving
The world is just evolving.
Cause I've been going crazy
And I've been feeling lazy
And I've been thinking lately
That just maybe, someday maybe
I wonder what you'd expect
Carbohydrates killed the queen
With a baby on your back and—
There I was—looking at myself from above,
All the love in the world;
Just a lonely little girl
Never got out of bed, that day:
But I went away somewhere,
And there I was—looking at myself from above,
All the love in the world,
Just a lonely little girl
“why are you waking me up?”
And sometimes, it's too much
Too much is, never enough
I've never been in love (with me)
But I've always been in love (with you)
It wouldn't have been the death of me.
How I crossed white lines
How did you find me, here
How did you know, I would
Once you finally showed me the road?
I've seen both the frog, and the toad;
You've already left me exposed,
You just have to live more,
And once you've been through the cycles, you could be
Created after pleasure...
With immense imploding pressure
And I'll probably run for President—
Just like I tend to run from everything; not because I want to do it, but because I have to...
And just as I run from everything,
As is the vicious cycle of life, unrepeated.
I should have seen it coming, when he kicked my puppy—I didn't, but my mother did, and it might have been the same day. If not, it was definitely on the same porch—the same porch where...my adolescence began, and ended.
When your spirit is broken
There is no cure—when you suffer in silence
When you've seen all the violence
The dragon I'm chasing is me,
Translucent and transparent
I am the thing that happens when you
I been waking up randomly,
I'm vanishing without a trace
And maybe I just hate this place,
I been waking up randomly
Avoiding my eyes in reflections
I fell in love at a festival
She came to dance, she was solo oh-oh
...took my hand, said let's go- oh—oh-oh
This ‘tingle' I get is more than
The moments I never forget
The stories you never will tell—
This is hell, you're not dreaming
I never planned to leave this planet
Paying the price for this
I don't mean to write this
I can't trust myself anymore
I can't trust this world anymore
Phased out, going about in this
Town like I'm drowning in
Or rather, a diamond in the rough
What you want is perfection
I just like who you are and thats—
I have nothing but love to give, love
I didn't think I'd live this long
And it was longer than I thought
Phased out, going about in this
Town like I'm drowning in
Do you wanna know what it's like to be lonely like me
I can tell you better than show you
Once I get to know you good luck
Donder (Donny) “we'll just call you Donny”
Uhhh...Because...we found you in the woods.
“You know, like—the wild thornberrys”
“Uhhh—wasn't Donny found in the Jungle”
“Uhhh—isn't the jungle just a denser version of the woods?”
“I guess. It's like an earth-remix”
Miami wells up—Crystal jumps up excitedly
And I've been stuck on Abbot Kinney,
Thinking about Will Rodgers and
Thinking that I'm a dodgers fan—
Of everything I need to be:
And if the world were watching me
She'd think she was herself.
I was never sleeping, I'm just here
And I was never reading, I just
Put the bookmark where I left off...
And as it dries in my palm—
I know it won't take long until I'm
Drifting back into—sifting back into
You'll know when you've reached the promised land.
‘It's time to fall in love...with yourself.'
A 20-something's imaginary friend returns, a decade after disappearing, just as she finds herself on the brink of ‘real adulthood', and has settled into the mundane and mediocre—as he leads her on a journey of self-discovery, she internally struggles with whether to tell her therapist—after deciding (or rather, being convinced) she shouldn't, she begins a desperate search for answers in what seems like a downward spiral into
(ends with: Fear of the Water, as he dissappears and fades away into stardust and she is left alone with all of the artwork he helped her create.)
A group of friends decide to form their own society after discovering an “uncharted” island—what they don't know [understand] is that the world government is observing at every angle—and as their population increases, they struggle as the popularity of their culture and lifestyle explode—
Craig's world- an ensemble about the good old days of craigslist
The world has the most to learn from its elders and it's youth—fever disrespect the sometimes even subtle wisdom of a child or your elders.
That's what I like in my face
Drop that shit, don't make me wait
Make me dance off all this waste
I like chocolate, give me cake
Wednesday mornin' wake-n-bake
Star Jones—Oprah—Ricky lake
Which is real and which is fake?
Pick the right one, no mistake
White girl: “can I touch your hair? Is it fake??”
[interlude- two friends at a festival//a phone call]
“Where the fuck are you?”
“I'm by the—WAIT—hello?!”
“Yo. Where the fuck is she?”
“I don't know man, probably lost in the sauce...”
Sample Lost In The jungle//Kendrick Boo Boo
Friends that say that they “gotchu” and then don't
Nobody gives a fuck about you—
And if you can't remember
Make a habit of forgetting
Cause you're just another
Just to take back all my fucks
Throw it over my shoulder
This is the last chance you get
There's no pleasure, no smiles—
I'm just driving for miles
Three girls at a camping festival find an incapacitated man in the woods and take him back to their campsite for safety—when one of the girls discovers that she recognizes the mysterious man, actually a headliner at the festival they're attending—two of the girls keep it a secret from their friend who would certainly take advantage of the situation. When he awakens, he has no memory of himself—and so a journey begins: a test of friendship, and a race against the clock.
“*giggles* what's a rave?”

C-Is Giving drugs to somebody with amnesia bad?

S-Well maybe, it's not giving it to him that would be bad—like, they were already in his system, probably wouldn't he go like, into withdraw or something.

Chava Hoffs- A Voluptuous Dark-Skinned Alaska Native-Black Mixed fashionista who (to her disdain) earns a living as a correctional officer in a juvenile detention facility in Arctic Alaska, daydreaming her long nights away and stacking her money, saving up for an escape to someplace warm and sunny. She is bright and quick-witted, but sometimes awkward—truly a ball of energy, whether good or bad.
Sala Emilio (Stax) A tall, olive skinned hottie from Utah of Native American and Mexican decent who works as head chef in a gourmet Chinese food restaurant—a phenomenally functional alcoholic with a free spirit, questionable morals, good values, a loving heart—and a dry sense of humor. Childhood best friends with Chava,
I hope you're okay with the character I based off you. I'm not going to copy the story exactly (cause it's a movie, duh) so—I came up with the story that your character runs the kitchen of a classy gourmet 5-Star Chinese restaurant in Utah that has an all-Mexican staff of mostly illegals; my character is a CO at a youth correctional facility in remote Alaska—I felt like those two extremes would play funnier on camera than to replicate our actual situations. I also made them not parents, because I would rather take the whole issue of parenting and raving into a completely separate film idea, I'm thinking of calling it

The same man from earlier looks out the window of his high rise penthouse suite, across from Chava's hotel—and sees Chava levitating—he pauses, looks around, and raises his eyebrows, drunkenly and assumingly otherwise intoxicated in his appearance.
Chava is freaking out, remaining motionless as she floats above the bed—she looks out the side of her peripheral, afraid to move—looking up at the ceiling, her eyes widen. She blinks, and takes a deep breath.
He questions what he is seeing, as he pours himself a drink.
As Chava dances through the crowds, she connects and trades Kandi, moving to the beat with intricate motion and flare—people are loving her (a musical dance number)—from backstage, a man pouts and purses his lips, wondering why she is familiar—he is momentarily lost in thought, as he gazes at her and the crowd.
Man: (under his breath) Daaamn...

Chava is freaking out, remaining motionless as she floats above the bed—she looks out the side of her peripheral, afraid to move—looking up at the ceiling, her eyes widen. She blinks, and takes a deep breath.
He questions what he is seeing, as he pours himself a drink.
As Chava dances through the crowds, she connects and trades Kandi, moving to the beat with intricate motion and flare—people are loving her (a musical dance number)—from backstage, a man pouts and purses his lips, wondering why she is familiar—he is momentarily lost in thought, as he gazes at her and the crowd.
Man: (under his breath) Daaamn...
Lackey: c'mon man, let's get the fuck out of here
Lackey: don't worry, you know there's gon' be hoes at the spot.
Man: ...but look at her viiibe...and that ass tho—damn!
Lackey: eehhhh. You wanna ass, I got a specific folder in my contacts titled “fat ass” with 300 bitches in it—
Lackey: whatever—look—I could get you an ass twice as fat, on a dime twice as fine—in 10 minutes flat.
Man: (eyes shining, like domo) but look at her aura...
Lackey: —I think I got an Aurora in here
Lackey: (pulling at him) let's *go*, the fuck is you trippin..?
His eyes won't move away, but he is led by the lackey by his arm, confusededly pouting as he is dragged along.
He feels like he knows her.
CHAVA'S ENTRY DANCE scene
Festival Trip- Two lifelong friends take a two-week-long trip across the country, to attend two major music festivals—one on the west coast (Among Aliens, in California), and one on the east (Ultimate Music Festival)
The Epic Trip – After breaking up with both her ex-fiance and her best friend, a depressed and anxious Chava decides to take a last-minute trip to another one of her bucket list destinations: The Epic Music Festival in Las Vegas, Nevada.
F*ckFest: The Origins (Prequel) 21-year-old Chava Hoffs, a longtime raver and lover of all things dance culture, finally convinces her bar-scene best friend to accompany her to a regional event in her area, ‘F*ckfest', Sala's first ever festival/rave where—to both her and Chava's surprise, she connects with other longtime friends she had no idea were immersed into the culture. Chava, having been “rave-retired” since entering her first serious relationship, becomes overly-excited and branches off on her own, reconnecting with her true self after spending too long in her own shell—she discovers her love for an up-and-coming new artist (‘Shluggy') who magnetizes her with a newly-created sound (‘PukeRock'—a play on “VomitStep”)
Vibes [Mini Series]- A sequel-in-installments to the shenanigans following F*ckfest, where Chava returns to visit Sala and her friends, to journey back to to ‘one of her favorite venues'—which now hosts V1brati0n—Utah's biggest dance music festival. As all the characters make their way to their favorite sets, separating, grouping-off, and pairing-up along the way—each episode details the story of each one's journey into the festival—and eventually, back to each other as the festival comes to a close.
Festival Trip II- After reconciling, Chava and Sala unite again to journey to uncharted territories—after Chava is invited along as a journalist to cover artists belonging to an up-and-coming record label based in Alaska, she invites Sala as a tag-along, knowing that her “weird hoe-magic” will attract—as always—even more interesting personalities and circumstances than she could dream to on her own. Yin-and-Yang reunite.
Chava Hoffs- A Voluptuous Dark-Skinned Alaska Native-Black Mixed fashionista who (to her disdain) earns a living as a correctional officer in a juvenile detention facility in Arctic Alaska, daydreaming her long nights away and stacking her money, saving up for an escape to someplace warm and sunny. She is bright and quick-witted, but sometimes awkward—truly a ball of energy, whether good or bad. (“Chava like Lava—and when she volcano? BOOM.”) Through trial-and-error, she discovers herself on a path of enlightenment—her strong intuition guiding her through trial and tribulation.
Sala Mae Emilio (Stax) A tall, olive skinned hottie from Utah of Native American and Mexican descent, who works as head chef in a five-star gourmet Chinese food restaurant—a phenomenally functional alcoholic with a free spirit, questionable morals, good values, a loving heart—and a dry sense of humor. Childhood best friends with Chava, she serves as an uncuttable heartstring for Chava throughout the test of time.
Gunther Ross- The more than interesting circus-act of a plug/one of Sala's romantic interests, who just happens to be in the same place at the same time, once Sala and Chava arrive in California.
Solomon Dominguez- Chava's “homie-lover-friend”, a DC native transplanted to LA who hustles and bustles the 3-job life to live the California dream—a surprisingly dedicated and loyal friend to Chava, who considers him the “king of fuckboys”—which, is not entirely untrue, being that his life goal is to “become a real Ninja.”
Johnny McEntire- An eclectic and friendly photographer who stumbles upon Sala during a vulnerable-yet-crucial moment—a sweet, humble, and vibrant personality, Chava mostly dismisses him as just another victim of Sala's constantly-inconstant romantic gestures and affiliations.
Grace Williams (Chava's Super-Christian (but very sweet) Aunt)
Billy Williams- Chava's very dorky, super-quirky, southern Baptist uncle who can't help but throw in a “praise-Jesus” or interject with “halleluiah”
Krista DeVaunte- Bride-To-Be—Noah's Fiance A light-skinned, freckled and green-eyed debutant whose “gingerness is contradictory to her blackness”
Noah Williams- Chava's Cousin, the groom to be
Naomi Williams- Chava's salty Cousin, and freinemy since birth—Noah's younger sister
Sonny Johnson— Chava's ex-fiance
Dustin Roberts—Sala's ex-boyfriend
Juan Manuel Jose Melendez Gutierrez-Rodriguez—Sala's current boyfriend, with whom she lives & works with; A Mexican immigrant with ‘grown-ass kids', Juan is a ‘machismo' who prides himself on working hard, and claiming Sala as his young, hot wanna-be step mom.
Running Jokes: Speaking Spanish with a Mandarin-inflenced dialect—speaking/yelling in awful Spanish-sounding Mandarin—speaking “Mandarish” or “Spandarin”
Every time Chava mentions Sonny (her ex), Sala interjects with “Fuck Sonny!”
Cop Jokes (due to Chava's occupation)
ACT I- The Wedding Bashers/It's Festival Season
Inciting Incident—Plans to attend a destination wedding that Chava and her lifelong long distance best friend Sala, have been planning for almost a year are abruptly halted when Chava learns via a very eventful facetime call (‘Meet The Williams') that her +1 invitation had apparently only applied to her now-ex-fiance [whom her stuck-up family adored because of his abhorrent Christianity], and that the bride-to-be would not allow Sala to take his place on the guest list—as her vivid memories of Sala from Chava's engagement party are severly grotesque.
Flashback: Chava + Sonny's engagement party.
Chava: Yeah dude, they got all, mad-butthurt that I was bringing you instead of Sonny.
A remote, unnamed city in the Alaskan Arctic Circle. It is severely cold, even visually so.
Festival Trip is a Film and Television saga that offers a new perspective on the ever-changing and recently popularized culture of dance music; it touches on the history of the culture as a whole, as well as a variety of other societal issues this generation faces—friendship, connectivity, communication—the dawn of social media, America's education system and justice system, immigration, and emerging mental health and drug crisis—while also taking a look at a history of counter culture as a derivative of the rapidly evolving technology of today's society. Through its characters and storylines, we dive deeply into a conglomerate of generational growth and exponentially educational topics, lightheartedly
Festival Trip Tagline: Two Friends. Two Weeks. Two Festivals—One World.
The Epic Trip Tagline: Girl, Meet World.
First Fest (Prequel) Chava is a teenager in a bit of a pickle, whose unlikely plug Christopher B. Dickenson (and coincidentally, best friend) picks her up at random from her lonely dormitory [where she tends to seclude herself] and takes her on a wild adventure to her first underground warehouse event, where she gets her first taste of the “wubs she lubs”—and her first glance of who is sure to become her favorite artist of all time—and later, the King of Dance modern American dance music, Sun(dot)Moon.
Dave: So...let me get this straight…
[Chava expressionlessly looks to him, with astute confidence.]
Dave: [sighs heavily] You want...all of the vacation time you've accumulated over the last year...at once.
[He pauses to think, searching for his response.]
Dave: ...I…[sighs again, more heavenly]...that's a lot of time off.
Chava: [monotonously] It is.
Dave: We're short-staffed as it is.
Dave: ...What if I say ‘no'?
[He purses his lips and squints at her, as if to say “I can't??”, She matches his expression very matter of factly--she is right.]
Dave: (rolling his eyes, skimming the paperwork and the calendar on his desk) Please. What do you know about ‘company policy'?
Chava: You made me read the employee handbook three times my first week.
Dave: What? And you actually did it???
Dave: I'll show you inappropriate.
[Chava stares at him blankly. Her dryness deflates him, his eyes widen, contemplating-- He sighs again, mumbling just over his breath as he reads her submission aloud to himself.']
Dave: ‘...for the wedding of a close family member...dates specified…'yadayadayyadah --You need two weeks off for a wedding? What kind of wedding is this, anyway?
Chava: A ‘destination' wedding.
Dave: Psh. What's the destination--outer space?
(Chava's thoughts: I wish.)
Dave: [makes a ‘yeesh' face] Outer space might be safer.
Chava: Though, not as cheap.
Chava: Hardly, sir--I work here.
Chava: As long as you approve my paperwork.
Dave: How do I know that this isn't your clever way of accumulating your PTO for a nice fat paycheck and leaving us all in the dust?
Chava: What dust? It's -55 degrees outside.
[He looks at her flatly.]
Dave: (whinily)...Two weeks?
Dave (Cont'd): [sighs] ...and you're coming back…?
[Chava squints at him questionably.]
_______________________________________________________________________
Chava: Yo, it's official--I just got the vacation time approved: We going to mexico.
Sala: Ahhh, yesss bro, I'm so excited.
Chava: Same. My boss almost flipped a shit I'm taking so much time off.
Sala: You need some time off dude, you work too much.
Chava: Agreed--I haven't even taken a day off in like, a year.
[Chava's phone alerts her of an incoming FaceTime.]
Chava: Oh, shit bro! It's my cousin. He's probably calling about the RSVP. Hit you back?
[Chava switches to FaceTime; Her Aunt Mildred
1: Wait, do you hate me, or do you hate yourself?
2: I hate the both of us enough
