The Story: Nirvana or Nightmare?

Two American college buddies, Paxton and Josh, backpack through Europe looking for the ultimate party. Along with their new friend Oli, they are lured to a remote Slovakian town rumored to be a paradise for American travelers.

The dream quickly turns into a visceral nightmare. What begins as an exotic getaway spirals into a sinister situation as wide and deep as the darkest, sickest recesses of human nature. This isn't just a vacation—it’s a survival test.
