Inspired by the viral myth of Alexandria genesis — a fictional genetic condition originating from a Daria fanfic — this fanfiction of a fanfiction follows Mary-Sue, an idealized online trope, and Anti-Sue, her imperfect counterpart, as they encounter this obscure story infiltrating their lives.
The film investigates the chaotic life cycle of an internet myth, tracing its evolution and cultural impact. By blending cultural anecdotes, social media fragments, and digital ephemera, it explores how digital folklore transforms into shared narratives, shaping communities through humor, anxiety, and perpetual reinvention.
