Synopsis

Mila struggles as she remains unpaid at work and finds comfort in a love interest through his constant phone calls.
But a promise of hope may also lead to tragedy and sad love songs.

Director's Statement

There are dire consequences in a culture devoid of empathy and morality.
But who will be there to witness it and suffer?
This chronicles a woman in her struggles, of oppression that stems from a semblance of entitlement, and the depths of desperation where it leads to, grasping onto anything that may provide solace.
