Description
A woman on the verge of a nervous breakdown as her marriage unravels, as she herself unravels. We follow her in and out of denial that the marriage is over, in and out of drugs and fantasies about other men, other lives she could live, anything to numb the pain of the reality that she can no longer live with the man she is married to. The loss is so great. She begins to question her sexuality. She begins to question her mental stability. She goes on a journey to the darkest side of herself and what she is capable of. While she is about to create great instability in her life she tries not to end up on the street.
