1996. Owen, a quiet seventh-grader, finds it hard to come out of his shell; instead, he prefers to keep to himself. That is until he crosses paths with Maddy, a ninth-grader obsessed with The Pink Opaque, a late-night teen fantasy TV show. But as their shared love for the series develops into a close friendship, the two suburban kids gradually lose themselves in the complex universe of their favourite supernatural series. At first, everything was peaches and cream. And then, Maddy suddenly vanished into thin air, blurring the fragile lines between reality and fiction. More and more, the kitschy monsters encroach on their banal lives, determined to suck them into their twisted world at every turn. Now thrust into a nightmarish adventure where the ordinary becomes extraordinary, what will it take for Owen and Maddy to escape the TV's otherworldly glow?
