We Are Stardust, We Are Golden
In the summer of 1969, Rey and her best friend Finn travel to the Catskill Mountains to work at a summer resort. Rey enjoys her job until a guest named Armitage Hux arrives, who makes her life a living hell. But there’s something about his friend Ben that intrigues her. As Rey and Ben begin to fall for each other, they must keep their intense relationship a secret. They are also forced to navigate their first love while major events of the 1960’s, such as the Vietnam War and the Woodstock festival, occur around them.
