Dead Broke in the Yonder Void

When musician Matty DeYoung is kicked of his new girlfriend's apartment for pissing into a box fan and spraying her bedroom in a drunken sleepwalk, he finds himself unhoused, unskilled, and wandering the crumbling streets of late 2000s San Francisco. Lost in his rapid downward spiral, he spends his days and nights drenched in a cycle of self-loathing alcoholism and isolation. After pawning his prized guitar and participating in horrific medical tests to survive, a chance meeting with a desperate manager lands him a job at a local theater. There, he meets Austin, a fellow dirtbag who is determined to be Matty's friend despite his alienation, addictions, and demons. Through Austin, and the violent beauty of the streets they both call home, Matty finally discovers that the only way out of the void is to grab a helping hand and face the music.
