Synopsis

A man and woman awaken from an apparent drugged-out night to find their baby missing.

The pair relive their history in order to remember their way back to their child and to try to set things right.

This haunted, poetic journey moves through time from past to present to future, and from darkness and doubt to the glimmer of miraculous light.

Press Reviews

"Octavio Solis … is an accomplished playwright who knows how to manipulate a situation for maximum psychological insight, and this text appears to be so close to the bone that its subjectivity comes across with raw tension."
— Hollywood Reporter
