In L.A. And out of their element. Will they need to grow apart in order to grow up? Welcome to the bouncy castle of Los Angeles in 2004. At the dawn of social media, Carla and Pete embark on a quest for the perfect soundtrack to their lives only to find that it's going to take a lot more than a killer vinyl collection to get by in a city that doesn't give AF. They came for indie rock stardom, only to find themselves sidelined by life's realities and their own emotional limitations. Carla experiences the true meaning of monotony as a TV extra, while Pete, wrestling with societal views on bisexuality, answers phones. Despite their mutual affection, Carla feels rejected, while Pete, secretly grappling with his identity, shies away from intimacy. Their world, filled with vinyl records, a spirited cat named Joni, and an eccentric Hollywood landlady, offers fleeting moments of deep connection. But the arrival of a charismatic stranger disrupts their fragile status quo, forcing them to confront faded ambitions and the true nature of their relationship. The second installment in Lisa Czarina Michaud's punk coming-of-age Disenchanted saga, Somewhere in Hollywood brings you the pop culture eye of the early-aughts, the counterculture and spirit of independent music, and the lyrical longing of unrequited love. High Fidelity vibes with a queer twist, it balanced the tightrope walk of personal growth and relationship dynamics, capturing the soul of a generation in search of itself and the relentless pursuit of something more.
