Taking place entirely on "Cybil's Disco Jet," DECOMP DISCO places us in the midst of a disco-fueled quarrel between two women in 1978.

The video was shot in December 2022, two months prior to the director’s top surgery in February ‘23, after over a year of planning, preparation, waiting, and schedule changes for the procedure.
