In a post-apocalyptic Los Angeles, recently hit by a devastating earthquake, Steve Ellison (Flying Lotus) brings together four stories of people at the apex of eccentricity: a couple that explores its conjugal wishes and fantasies, the daily woodland escapades of a student who befriends a mysterious extraterrestrial creature, a Hip Hop MC who lives with two aliens, and who, upon discovering she is pregnant, goes to a clinic run by George Clinton (Funkadelic Parliament) to solve the issue. Meanwhile, a woman buried underground searches for her son. Singular in its vision, psychedelic in its execution, and presenting a subversive intelligence, KUSO is an unforgettable experience.
