Thanks – we got it. We'll review and follow up if needed.
A carnivorous vine on a planet infected with a human exodus cult, forges psychic connections with Earth, and bestows an unsuspecting group of women with the power to heal or destroy the remnants of humanity.
STAR-SCORCHED FINGERTIPS is an ultimately hopeful, eco-punk adult science fantasy that explores the future of humanity and our obligations to our planet of origin.
If Annihilation and Day of the Triffids met up with The Handmaid's Tale to traverse space while tripping on mushrooms, STAR-SCORCHED FINGERTIPS would be their queer, rebellious love child.
