Storyline
In a state where visual art is illegal, a weary Johnny works a numbing job destroying it. Discovering a train car that grants spatial access into his mind, Johnny realizes his desires to create art and form connection. His boss Bill soon tasks him to buff the train’s graffiti, though his mind-opening experiences inspire a more rebellious act.
