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. 

When Isme steals a necklace from an elderly woman who passes away shortly after, her obsession a poses questions about the afterlife and the karma that might transcend the physical realm.
