Fleabag meets Big Swiss in this bold debut about a charismatic misfit who livestreams her life for seven days and nights to raise money to save her comatose sistera poignant and darkly funny exploration of grief, forgiveness, and redemption.Dell Danvers is barely keeping it together. Shes behind on rent for her studio apartment (formerly a walkin closet), shes being plagued by perpetual stomach pain, and her younger sister, Daisy, is in a coma at a hospital that wants to pull the plug. Freshly unemployed and subsisting on selling plants to trust fund kids, Dell impulsively starts a 24hour livestream under the username mademoiselle_dell to fundraise for private life support for Daisy.Dell is her streams dungeon master, banishing those who dont abide by her terms and steadily rising up the platforms ranks with her sympathetic story and angryfunny screen presence. Once she discovers she has a talent for eating spicy food, her streaming fame explodes and her pepper consumption escalates from jalapeo to ghost to the hottest pepper on earth: the Carolina Reaper. Dell is finally good at somethingbut as her behavior becomes riskier and a shadowy troll threatens to expose her dark past, Dell must reckon with what her digital life ignores, and what real redemption means.Narrated in seven taut chapters, one for each day of Dells livestream, Just Watch Me careens through a week in the life of this misguided striver with a heart of gold. Voyeuristic and visceral, audacious and outrageous, Lior Torenbergs debut is both a razorsharp tragicomedy about the internet economy and a surreptitiously moving tale about the desire to be watched, and the terror of being seen.
