FYRE FESTIVAL meets ONE OF THE GIRLS in this locked-room thriller about a series of kidnappings at a music festival that culminate in murder
'It's the hottest ticket in town. But once you're in, there's no getting out.'. Set in the summer on a Greek island accessible by causeway. The festival is being held for the first time and is attracting a lot of attention with free tickets being won in contests and lots of influencer promotion online. Jody, Ari and Carla are a trio of close friends who win tickets to this boujee Burning Man - which features art, dancing, music and 'experiences' like a 'sensory dome', oxygen bar and nap tent. The festival is nothing like what was advertised though, with many attractions being tiny or not there at all. The scale of the festival is small and fairly intimate, and the trio make friends with their tent neighbours.
As the five-day festival begins, one of their tent neighbours goes missing but the girls think she must have just stayed the night with a man. As the days go on, more people go missing and the trio make friends with, Andrei, one of the event organisers who gets them backstage for free. On day three, they find the body of their tent neighbour and all hell breaks loose once they realise their new 'friend' Andrei had a role to play. The trio can't leave the festival site as they are trapped on an island. Eventually, a group of women come together to murder Andrei and the other organisers and they are able to escape.
