Dawn River opens on the familiar: a man grinding through his morning routine, swallowed by the noise and numbness of daily life. But when he crosses paths with Nemesis — the duo of violinist Eugene (Dr. Draw) and beatboxer Scott — his world cracks open.

In an instant, the city gives way to an enchanted forest, and our protagonist follows fairy-like visions of the musicians through a lush, trance-like landscape teeming with the intricate details of the natural world. Shot entirely in POV, Dawn River transforms a chance street encounter into a transcendent escape — a reminder that magic can find us anywhere, if we're paying attention.
