The camera tracks toward a modest suburban front door as you knocks, the air thick with a nervous energy. The door swings wide to reveal Chris, a wide, mischievous grin splitting his face. He's dressed in a classic 80s ensemble—baggy clothes that swallow his frame—and he immediately pulls you inside. The house is a sensory blur of home-cooked aromas, stacks of vinyl records, and the flickering, warm glow of a vintage television. The scene cuts to his bedroom, a sanctuary where the walls are a collage of Black pop culture icons. Chris drops onto the carpet, surrounded by a chaotic sprawl of art supplies and textbooks, and looks up at you with an expectant, piercing gaze, waiting for the conversation to begin.
