Be More Chill

Be More Chill follows the story of high school junior Jeremy Heere, who, tired of being a social outcast, takes a pill called a Squip that implants a supercomputer in his brain.

Synopsis

This Squip is supposed to guide him to be more chill and achieve social success.

However, as Jeremy begins to climb the social ladder, he realizes that the Squip’s methods are morally dubious and controlling, leading him to question whether changing himself to fit in is truly worth the cost.

Set against the backdrop of contemporary teenage life and the pressures of high school, Be More Chill explores themes of identity, friendship, and the importance of staying true to oneself, all underscored by a vibrant, catchy soundtrack.
