A teenage chamber choir from a small town meets their demise in a freak roller coaster accident at a travelling fair. In this twisted cabaret, emceed by a fortune-telling machine named Karnack, all of them are called back from the grave to perform one last time. With eerily toe-tapping tunes and outrageous storytelling, six teenagers explore their fears, triumphs, dreams and defeats, culminating in a showstopping ride at a carnival in Uranium City. A roller coaster ride of hope, fear, fun and passion.
