Synopsis

What's it like to be awake when the rest of your world is asleep?  Meet an early-morning jogger, a lonely short-wave radio DJ, a modern Romeo and Juliet, and many other teen characters, who, through a series of scenes and monologues, search for connection in the magic hour.  Is there something to be said for blunt knives?  Is the monster under the bed real? Is anybody out there?  Find out in 4 A.M.
