Lucas returns from a night out on a night bus and falls asleep after texting his ex. When he wakes up, dawn has already broken. Someone has cut the pocket of his pants and taken his phone. The next day, while investigating with his best friend Marco using a location-tracking app, he starts receiving glitchy images and GPS coordinates from a group of kids in an outlying suburb. The attraction to distorted images of a masked man and a mysterious girl ignites the emotional process of a teenager going through a first experience of heartbreak. This leads the boy to delve into a dark underworld where the detective game blurs with the ghosts of a spiralling relationship that urgently needs a resolution.
