Hidden away from the rowdy dancing and drinking, as each person shares their eye-opening adventure, the friends watch as the energy in the room grows. From Danny’s Tahitian love affair and ensuing anguish to Elijah’s inspiring journey overcoming self-doubt to confront evil, the group unfolds the undeniable and intensifying power of enlightenment.
