INTERNATIONAL PREMIERE - When an old VCR mysteriously shows up at Video Vision's digitising facility, it starts affecting employee Kibby in many strange ways. Meanwhile, an unlikely romance with a trans man, Gator, has Kibby's head in the clouds until she's brought to her knees by the supernatural force that's slowly taking control of her body and mind. When Kibby and Gator investigate the VCR's origins, they discover that she has unwittingly unlocked the dark dimension of Dr. Analog. A bright, sassy and scary Retrotech romance that also riffs on every current issue on sexuality.
