Description

“Game Never Sleeps” follows an assortment of high school students into the summer night—capturing the parties, games, and impromptu encounters that make for lasting memories. Set to the synth-funk assault of Lil Jon and DJ Snake’s smash hit, “Turn Down for What,” the :90 film combines plotlines from three separate :30 spots into an epic account of after-hours fun.

The first story captures a late-night football game played between the lines of an improvised, glow-in-the-dark field. The second takes place at a wild summer house party, where one daredevil teen leaps from the roof of a two-story home and into a nearby pool—deftly removing his sneakers in mid-air to keep them out of the water. The third film tracks a group of friends to the phosphorescent glow of the Vegas strip for a pavement-pulverizing game of pickup basketball. The full film blends moments from each of these stories together to tell a frenetic tale of young adults sneaking out and owning the night with style.
