Pop musical film full of deep house and disco. On the dancefloor, loves are born and relationships shatter. Mens is confined to her home, but regains a zest for life owing to nocturnal escapades.
Mens is completely stuck in life. Challenged by her alter ego Blauw, she leaves the door. After a touch-up by the vamps, she ends up in a club that throws her off balance, but also makes her radiate. To the sounds of deep house and disco, loves are born and relationships shatter, people drink, dance, kiss, sing, curse, shower. When Mens steps outside, she proceeds enlightened; her dance is a tribute to the kaleidoscopic journey through the night that gave her back her zest for life. Based on an idea of singer/composer Merel Baldé (aka MEROL) and Isis Cabolet, inspired by the closure of all nightlife venues during the lockdown.
