Synopsis: (Drama, Horror) Alex, a young man suffering from an eating disorder, stays overnight at his boyfriend David's apartment. Alex wakes up to find his jeans missing and David cooking an elaborate breakfast. David asks Alex to stay, who reluctantly agrees. As David cooks, Alex weighs himself in the bathroom when he is briefly pulled into an alternate version of the apartment where he is attacked by an unknown force. This force proceeds to confront Alex and David with twisted realizations of their fears and anxieties as they try to finish their meal. Cast: Tommy Bernardi, Alton Alburo
