The Tank NYC, 2022

At a luxury health facility in the woods of New Hampshire, patients offer themselves up as host to the Lone Star Tick, a tiny parasite whose bite induces a meat allergy. Over a period of two weeks, they'll undergo unconventional therapies led by a chilly doctor and her robot therapists, while a team of scientists closely monitor the development of any... abnormalities. No refunds! In a world of ruts, routines, and empty reinventions, MEAT is about the ways, big and small, we try to trick ourselves into being better.
