Synopsis:

      

       ... In the dimly lit confines of an after-party, amidst familiar faces of friends, lingers an unsettling aura of vulnerability. Weaving through the party scene till dawn, she experiences an unnerving, unmasking spotlight on her: revealing a sense of hyper awareness, anxiety and insecurity felt beneath her confidant guise. She becomes the spectator of her own reality.

 

         Surrounded by those meant to provide solace, there's an inexplicable discomfort: a disconnect that amplifies the need for euphoria-inducing substances to bridge the gap between self and surroundings. As the night unfolds through thick hazes of laughter and heavy bass lines, the search for comfort, acceptance and agency becomes persistent as familiar and unfamiliar territories fluctuate.
