Filmed in South Jersey, “Sicklerville” follows a group of friends over the course of one chaos-filled night as addiction, buried resentments and dreams of leaving their hometown threaten to divide them forever. As the night progresses, tensions rise and loyalties are tested, with each character forced to confront whether they’re destined to repeat the cycles of their hometown or finally break free.
