In the middle of the night, she grabs her car and hits the road. A desperate woman is determined to sell her own version of an energy drink to a mysterious online buyer, at any cost. Strange, decadent and darkly funny, the film offers a possible portrait of contemporary America.
I’ve always had a small regret, I didn’t learn “stuff” during covid, I guess I just existed. I’m not going to lie and say I’ve never felt some envy for all the people that learned a new “stuff” during the lockdown. Watching Homemade Gatorade reactivated that envy in me. Life just seems better if I learned to produce my own homemade gatorade, find some sketchy people online to sell it to, drive more than six hours through the night and eventually explore holes people have in their ground. Imagine all the stories we could tell if we lived the homemade gatorade life. (Rui Mendes)
