Description
Santacon is perhaps the single most hated event on the planet. A dreaded day in which tens of thousands of drunk idiots dress like Santa and invade countless cities around the world to live out their drunkest and most violent instincts.
But it began as something else entirely: a piece of absurdism designed to shock people out of their everyday existence by creating a sense of awe and confusion. The folks who started Santacon in the ‘90s are the same people who started Burning Man and who served as the real-life inspiration for FIGHT CLUB and Project Mayhem. And today, they want nothing to do with their Christmas creation.
SANTACON is an immersive documentary about how great ideas can transform into something else entirely… and what it's like to accept and live in a world you no longer understand. Told with exclusive access to the event’s original creators and with countless hours of never-before-seen home movies from the ‘90s, you’ll be transported back in time to a world of awe, wonder, and endless possibility.
