Anonymous. at The Boiler Room

In a Philadelphia meeting room, a group of superheroes gathers anonymously to connect and support one another. As the year progresses, they celebrate birthdays, share stories, and face the reality of their own mortality.

'Anonymous.' explores themes of friendship, loss, and the bittersweet nature of time within the context of a superhero narrative. Sharing moments of joy and grief, the heroes confront the fragility of life and the enduring power of human connection.

In the face of inevitable loss, what does it truly mean to be brave?
And what does a hero do when they can't save themself?
