SHORT SYNOPSIS


Angelica, an on the outside very normative woman, is haunted by a feverish dream, urging her to approach her roommate Ami, an openly queer, gender fluid person. But Angelica's attempts to connect are clumsy and awkward, and she keeps stepping over Ami's boundaries in a desperate search for her own self.

    What first starts as a seemingly innocent game of teasing, turns serious and exposes the insecurities and feelings lying behind, and when Angelica finally gets invited to Ami's room it is as if a new reality opens. A reality she does not know how to move in. But Ami's willingness to open up and share is limited, and while Angelica keeps pushing, Ami try to keep her at a safe distance. Yet at the same time, they are driven by a curiosity to understand Angelica, sensing similarities lying buried deep under.
