'Hatching' - Social Media as the Modern Cardboard World
Hanna Bergholm's 'Hatching' shows us that the modern version of the cardboard world trope is social media.

Bored with his "played out" life in Southern California, a spirited surfer named Splash has wanderlust, and seeks new turf for his heterosexual desires. An old hippie named Obie Franco Canobie misinforms Splash to travel to Provincetown, Massachusetts, because it was a Mecca for heterosexuals back in the 1960's. Upon his arrival, Splash is constantly hit upon by gay men, and his advances are rejected by many local lesbians. Just about to return back to California, Splash runs into Axel, the self-proclaimed "King of the Straight Scene". Soon, Splash is introduced to the vivacious Jennifer, and the two fall for each other.
