A psychological drama that follows Emily, a once vibrant and beautiful woman, as she confronts her ex-boyfriend for the first time since he sold her into sex-trafficking years prior.

This dangerous and dramatic encounter blurs the line between reality and imagination as Emily grapples with how Tristan has stripped her of her youth, her innocence and her identity.
Will Emily get the revenge and closure that she has longed for?
