Breathless

In the neon glow of Las Vegas and the sun‑splashed streets of Los Angeles, a restless world of nightclubs, fast cars and endless parties forms the backdrop for a reckless young drifter. He lives for the thrill of the moment, chasing the buzz of music, the glow of comic‑book heroes, and the promise of a life that has no rules. The city itself feels like a restless character, its lights and highways echoing his own desire to outrun anything that tries to hold him down.

Jesse Lujack is the embodiment of that reckless charm—a cocky, hedonistic wanderer who is constantly on the move, always a step ahead of the law and forever chasing the next high. His talent for slipping behind the wheel of anyone’s car makes him both a legend and a target, and the police’s relentless pursuit adds a dangerous edge to his otherwise carefree existence. Beneath the swagger, however, there’s a restless yearning for something more lasting than the next adrenaline rush.

When a fleeting encounter with Monica Poiccard—an architecture student whose beauty and intellect stand out even against the glittering backdrop of the West Coast—turns into an unexpected connection, the two find themselves drawn together by a mixture of attraction and curiosity. Monica’s world of design and quiet ambition collides with Jesse’s chaotic lifestyle, creating a tension that both excites and unsettles them. Their chemistry hints at a romance that could either elevate or unravel under the weight of their differing visions.

The film breathes with a stylish, sun‑drenched aesthetic, balancing the reckless joy of a perpetual party with the looming reality that life cannot be avoided forever. As Jesse and Monica navigate a world where desire, danger, and destiny intersect, the story invites the audience to wonder whether the allure of an endless night can ever truly satisfy a soul that yearns for something deeper.
