A fantastical coming-of-age story blending surrealism, satire, and social commentary. Cootie, a 13-foot Black teenager raised in isolation, steps into the wider world of Oakland for the first time. Through newly forged friendships with activist Jones, speedster Flora, and dreamer Scat, he begins to learn the political and personal injustices facing his community.
Battling the billionaire-hero figure known as The Hero—a media-created false protector—Cootie evolves from naïve outsider to reluctant revolutionary figure, pushing back against both personal and systemic oppression. It’s a journey about uncovering power (both literal and metaphorical), confronting capitalism, and redefining heroism on one’s own terms
