An investigation into one woman’s memory as she‘s forced to re-examine her first sexual relationship and the stories we tell ourselves in order to survive.
A transformative portrayal of a woman dismantling her own carefully constructed history makes this psychological autopsy impossible to look away from. It forces a confrontation with the dangerous, comforting lies we use to rewrite our most painful memories.
