Four Australian media students addictively broadcast on social networking sites, but life soon becomes dull until they discover an inspiring text that delves deep into the heart of the American dream. Team leader Damon travels through the States with Rochelle his considerate researcher, Yolanda a feisty interviewer, and Gareth, a perverted camera man who borrows a peculiar camcorder. But when fantasy becomes reality it turns into a nightmare: the EGO DEAD, an epidemic of auto-communicating zombies who document and share their entire lives instead of living them. The struggle for survival in a socially networked apocalypse forces the students to find true individualism. Only they can lead the resistance. Only they can reclaim the American Dream.
