A deserted suburb, late into the night when nothing but thoughts move. On the aftermath of his birthday party, Abram
(20’s) digests the events of the night that have exposed old wounds--initially set off by a recent contact from his
long-estranged father. But Abram’s night takes an unexpected turn when he welcomes W. (60s)--a mysterious woman
who reveals knowledge of a cryptic engraving etched onto the front of his house. Eager to find answers, Abram probes
into the stranger’s past.

W., a former astronaut, is still hypnotized by her experience of outer space. Disillusioned by life on earth and consumed
by the possibilities of the afterlife, she embarks on a suicidal ritual to reunite with her late daughter. But unable to go
through with it alone, she must convince Abram to help her complete the spiritual mission.

With his late-night guest on the verge of something tragic, Abram scours for a way to gently guide her back. But after a
transformative moment of connection, Abram must decide whether to keep those scars buried or blindly jump on board
the painful journey of forgiveness.
