The Southern Contest Myth

Synopsis

Image of a cinematic camera, described off by a female voice. Two students talk about film school. In a classroom, students stand up, one by one, attack and murder a classmate; the wallets fill up with corpses. A boy dances naked in front of a screen on which different images are projected. At the top of a platform, a man in a suit speaks to two naked young men who crawl across the floor. Two boys with clown makeup shed tears looking at the camera. Then they get in a car. Red spots explode and spread slowly across the screen.
