Inspired by the true-life experiences and struggles of an autistic transgender individual who co-wrote, co-produced, and appears in the film, this modern-day fairytale is a truly inclusive film experience created by and starring autistic, neurodivergent, LGBTQ, and multiethnic artists collaborating with entertainment professionals. Produced by Spectrum Laboratory, a nonprofit that creates original works of film, music, and animation with autistic and neurodivergent artists.

In hope of an encounter with his co-worker/crush Dekard, awkward college student Jim braves his childhood friend Owen's Halloween house party. Rather than the rendezvous of his dreams, Jim experiences mostly excruciating bouts with personally invasive, costumed attendees. The evening unfolds with an escalating series of altercations between Jim and enemies real, fake, and inanimate, including two-faced Owen. Jim's personal nightmare culminates in bloody conflict with a relentless antagonist, a trip to the ER, and the long overdue unmasking of a bully.
