Disc 20 - Ravenous

20.1 Escaping Reality

In this 11-minute piece, Chad attempts to escape reality by becoming someone else. The background for this adventure is called a “Rave” (a 12-hour California youth party). Through Chad’s attempts to be accepted and blend in to his surroundings, he prepares to introduce you to the process of escaping reality and exposes the lengths that some young people go to in order to deal with stress in their daily lives, naturally and spiritually. This headlong dive into rave subculture promises life but often produces only death and confusion. Through purchasing new clothes, a new car and donning a new attitude, Chad delivers practical insight into the world of escape.

20.2 Deceptive Fantasy

This is the culmination of Chad’s preparation to go to the rave. All the accessories are in place and Chad, Chris and Angelo dive into this popular subculture to expose the appeals these events have to people of all ages. This counter-culture scene promises to accept and embrace participants, but by the end of night, all leave confused and discouraged.
