Shedding and renewal anchor these six shorts, in which characters both look back and project forward to (re)examine lost places and new phases. Drawn at times closer together and others further apart, these films allow their characters to bristle against other selves and temporalities: crafting new worlds and leaving others behind. 

After having sex for the first time, Alba tells her friend Ania about the experience, and that she hasn't gotten her period. From that moment onwards Alba ponders what it means to make a decision that will forever alter the course of her life while trying to get a hold of Alexis who ghosted her.
