Yellow Door: ’90s Lo-fi Film Club

In a small, sun-soaked town in the 1990s, five misfit teenagers find refuge behind the painted Yellow Door of an old, abandoned movie theater. “Yellow Door: ’90s Lo-fi Film Club” follows the lives of these eclectic friends as they bond over their shared love for VHS tapes, low-fi aesthetics, and the comforting glow of flickering projectors. Each week, they gather to screen an underground film or cult classic, stitched together by their memories and reflections of adolescence.

The club is spearheaded by Sam, a shy but passionate film nerd who dreams of becoming a director. Conflicted over his idealistic visions and the harsh realities of high school, Sam strives to capture life’s imperfections on camera. His best friend, Jade, is a rebellious artist with an affinity for punk rock and a penchant for painting murals that reflect the often melancholic beauty of their town.

Their circle also includes Mike, a charming yet cynical aspiring writer who thrives on sarcasm but harbors a sensitive side; Lola, the quirky fashionista with a seemingly endless collection of thrift-store finds; and Alex, the tech-savvy introvert whose obsession with editing and soundtracks elevates the group’s film experience. Together, they form a tight-knit family, finding comfort and inspiration in one another’s differences.

However, the world beyond the Yellow Door is riddled with challenges. As they face the complexities of first crushes, family pressures, and a looming sense of adulthood, the group grapples with the impact of their friendships and the significance of art in their lives. Through the lens of their beloved films, they confront their fears, celebrate their victories, and navigate the bittersweet nature of growing up.
