Moontalk follows Luna, a 22-year-old woman in Paris, who tries to rebuild her life after a painful breakup with Jake. Between flashbacks of her summer 2023 in South Korea and the challenges of 2024, she is surrounded by her friends, Eva and Natasha...
October had slipped into a gentle melancholy as the days grew shorter and the nights darker. With Halloween approaching, a spark of excitement lit up Luna's heart, but this year, it was tinged with a lingering shadow. While the Day of the Dead was usually a time for costumes and laughter, for her, it represented a period when she felt particularly down, when the sparkle of the celebration could not penetrate her inner sadness.

It was the grand return of the trio, with Yuri having traveled from Japan to celebrate Halloween in Paris. For the occasion, they decided to stay at Nolan's, whose simple apartment was located in the heart of the city. There weren't many decorations, but a huge display filled with bottles of alcohol from around the world stood proudly in the middle of the room. A shared passion for alcohol was definitely a common thread among this group.
Preparations were in full swing. This time, it wasn't Nolan who suggested the costumes, but Yuri, who had spent hours ordering them online. In the end, they agreed on a series of costumes: zombie students, wicked fairies, and, in homage to their friendship, the famous duo from the manga Nana. Yuri, dressed as Nana, sported bloodstains on her costume, adding a touch that was both funny and scary.

Finally, Halloween night arrived. Nolan had invited a dozen people over for pre-drinks before they all headed to a nightclub. The excitement was palpable, but despite the festive atmosphere, Luna felt increasingly uncomfortable. The first hours passed in a cheerful ambiance, filled with lively music and laughter. Friends gathered around drinks, but for Luna, anxiety intensified.
Yuri, eager to enjoy every moment, let herself be swept away by the alcohol. She danced with strangers, laughing and having fun as if nothing else existed. Luna, on the other hand, sat on the couch with a vacant gaze, sinking into her dark thoughts. She had started drinking to forget, hoping the alcohol would provide her with a temporary escape. She used it as a shield, but as she drank, she felt neither the drunkenness nor the euphoria that others seemed to experience. Instead, a heaviness settled on her shoulders, isolating her from the festive atmosphere surrounding her.
