A love story, horror film, or perhaps a comedy, Spin! explores the extremes of consciousness arising from unmediated contact and intimacy with our manufactured ecology. Shot entirely in the first person, the film abandons the strictures of plot to focus instead on the lightness and gravity of a subject’s fleeting relationships with plumbing fixtures, clocks, spectators, vending machines, rabbits, dustbins, directional signs, guards, hand dryers, and with the two cities of dreams—Los Angeles and New York—which feature not merely as backdrops, but as main characters in their own right. Sustained throughout by Welch's Apple Juice, our bandaged entity is someone you’ll find disconcertingly familiar if you manage to spin around to look at yourself.

A white dropout struggles to become a cartoonist and filmmaker, drawing inspiration from the harsh, gritty world around him. Still sharing his rundown apartment with his middle-aged parents, an oafish slob of an Italian father and a ditzy nutcase of a Jewish mother, he's ridiculed and looked down upon by his friends, hypocrites who run with violent gangs and the Italian Mafia, and a shallow Black girl who makes her living downtown with the pimps and pushers. The cartoonist gets a chance to pitch a film idea to a movie mogul, but the story proves too outrageous: a far-future Earth, depleted by war and pollution, where a mutant antihero challenges and kills God.

Phineas and Ferb team up with the Avengers to save the world from Dr. Doofenshmirtz and a group of dangerous supervillains.
