I Want to Go Higher

Unpolished and intimate documentary about four male models on the brink of adulthood. On retreat in Thailand, they are supposed to work on their mind and body. In reality, they hang out in a luxury villa, chase girls and ride scooters in the nude. But their shenanigans cannot conceal the emptiness of their lives.
