On a warm December night in 1985 West Hollywood, the Oki Dog, infamous hangout for runaways and misfits, is forced to close. For Twilight and her friends, this means the uprooting of all that they know: their friendships, their makeshift home, even their hopeful Hollywood dreams. As Twilight clings to the only real family she's ever known, their last night together forces a reckoning with the past and hesitant steps towards an uncertain future - one in which their security, relationships and very lives remain in doubt.
