SYNOPSIS

Twenty years ago, Mount St. Helens erupted—and something impossible emerged from the ashes. During the chaos, six children were splattered with dragon blood. One of them, Trevor, was transformed. His skin turned green and scaly, leaving him isolated from the world and known only as the mysterious "Lizard Boy." On the night of Seattle's annual Monsterfest celebration, Trevor ventures out for the first time in years and agrees to meet Cary, a charming newcomer to the city. Their promising first date is interrupted by Siren, a magnetic musician who warns that dragons are returning and that the world may end before sunrise. As the night unfolds, Trevor must navigate first love, friendship, destiny, and self-acceptance while confronting the extraordinary forces gathering around him. By dawn, he will discover that the things that make us different may also be the source of our greatest strength.
