The story of one lost cell phone and music demo

THE STORY
"My phone number is 32-08.
It's easy to remember: thirty-two teeth and eight fingers."
Sergei Dovlatov
32 missed calls. 8 messages. Dark times. Ecstasy.
All night the heroine is wildly partying with the purpose of forgetting herself, documenting the trip on her phone, on which someone keeps trying to call her. Locations, clubs, people around her, bad habits change. The phone's battery gradually runs out. At some point the screen goes out, but it recharges again - and her adventure continues. At one point she gets ecstatic and starts taking pictures of everything, kissing, and eventually leaves the phone in the toilet during an unfortunate intimacy and drug use.

The phone camera keeps recording video. There is a fight in the restroom, somehow the phone falls to the floor and ends up in one dude's hands. He and his friends leave the club and continue streaming. It falls into the hands of some types, they proceed to pirate content on it. Night city from a car. Pictures of different people. Streams.

DREAMCAST
We want to build the story on the most realistic characters, who will not have to specifically "play" for the camera. That's why we suggest to try not professional actors as heroes, but real heroes, who will live themselves in the clip.
Among such heroes will be the authors of this track.
