Tragedy Babes is a dark comedy/thriller about two young women, Olivia and McKenna, who are chasing attention on a night out. Their performance quickly collapses into chaos. When a livestream dares them to steal a bottle of wine, they follow through, only for things to spiral into something much darker. When McKenna gets injured and Olivia stays glued to her phone, the film explores what happens when being seen takes priority over being present. Set in a heightened, familiar world, the film blurs the line between spectacle and survival.
