Ambitious and experimental, sci-fi musical Neptune Frost is a radical, afro-futurist vision of anti-colonialism from slam poet and musician Saul Williams.

A hacktivist group working from the hills of Burundi are attempting to take down the oppressive authoritarian regime exploiting the region’s people and resources. When an escaped Coltan miner and intersex outcast join forces, their transcendent connection could be the missing link needed to take down the Authority once and for all.

Set between states of being, male and female, waking and sleeping, memory and prescience, Neptune Frost is a deeply cerebral, punk gut-punch to the binary that redefines what it means to tell a story.
