In an abandoned warehouse, a crowd is dancing as one to 145 BPM techno music. Among them is Dustin, a young transgender and crew: Felix, Raya and Juan. As the night draws on, collective hysteria morphs into sweet melancholy, and euphoria into yearning for tenderness.
Naïla Guiguet (Vitry-sur-Seine, France. 1988) graduated in 2019 from the Fémis Screenwriting Department, where she wrote the short film La Peau dure (Rough Skin, 2019). During her time at the school, she co-wrote with Arnaud Desplechin, Catherine Corsini and Thomas Salvador. She is also a DJ and founder of the collective Possession, organisers of techno LGBTQI+ evenings. It was at one of these that she shot Dustin, her first short film as a professional, selected for the Semaine de la Critique at Cannes prior to its cancellation.
