About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you like music-driven stories about underground scenes and the push to break out, like Leto or 24 Hour Party People; Not for you if you want a light, low-stress watch.
Pros: urgent music scene energy; grounded city atmosphere; strong sense of stakes | Cons: loose story structure; stressful tone throughout; limited character depth
