Delphi Baxter is an amusement park worker who was left scarred after a childhood accident. Her boyfriend Brendan is a prince mascot at the park. When an actress dies at the amusement park, it is announced that the park will close. Delphi has increasingly surreal experiences as the park slowly winds down its operations and begins to doubt her reality.
