When poetry blogger Cole MacArthur heads over to the local café for some quiet time with a latte and a book of free verse, he closely encounters a whole lot more than he'd anticipated.It's the summer of 2015 and a small town in California's Gold Country is a hot-spot for tourists, hipsters, homeless, and an alien research team. Young beardy men are going missing, a potent new drug hits the streets, an artist living in a remote, fenced compound contemplates life and reality while witnessing unexplainable phenomena, a homeless vet believes he's being followed by a video crew to record his observations on life, a pair of government black operatives contemplate work-related issues and fast food, and a drug-addicted private investigator is drawn into the middle of it all when the beautiful girlfriend of a missing hacker engages his services. Add a generous supporting cast of artists, eccentrics, burnouts, drug dealers, warring café owners, and overextended law enforcement, and you have a somewhat surreal portrait of a delightfully unbalanced town called Equipoise. Hipsters vs. Aliens is a darkly funny, thoughtful, and subversive satire of America on the brink of a necessary soul-search...and a small town trying to cope with it all.
