Tyler joins his friend on a trip to the Catskills for a weekend birthday party with several people he doesn’t know.

Although Tyler is welcomed, he can’t help but feel uneasy in “Whitesville.” The combination of all the testosterone and alcohol starts to get out of hand, and Tyler’s precarious situation starts to feel like a nightmare.
