Once Upon a Time in Santa Barbara

ONCE UPON A TIME IN SANTA BARBARA FOLLOWS FLOYD, TYLER, AND JOHNNY; THREE LOCAL SURFERS CHASING FREEDOM FROM THE SYSTEM. THE BOYS SELL MARIJUANA TO HELP PAY THEIR RENT, AND FOR A WHILE THEY BEGIN TO BELIEVE THAT THIS WOULD BE THE PERFECT OPPORTUNITY TO GAIN INDEPENDENCE FROM A WORLD RULED BY OBLIGATION. GETTING INVOLVED WITH THE DRUG-INFESTED UNDERWORLD BRINGS THE BOYS MONEY, BUT ALSO CHANGES THEM IN WAYS UNIMAGINABLE. WITH MONEY COMES GREED, AND THE BOYS QUICKLY SLIP INTO A LIFE GOVERNED BY A THIRST FOR EXCESS. AS THIS GREED QUICKLY CONSUMES JOHNNY'S MENTALITY, FLOYD STRUGGLES TO STAY SANE. THEIR LIVES SPIRAL INTO CHAOS, AND THE IMPENDING DANGER THEY FACE BECOMES MORE AND MORE APPARENT.
