The opening visual is a minimalist shot of shadows and a single character - a dishevelled girl standing by herself in the darkness. As she begins to rage against an invisible character, the audience is compelled to sit up and pay attention. Soon she is joined by more characters, all distinctly singular and unique in their appearance and demeanour.
However, there is still a common thread that ties them all together - the intensity of the emotions that they seem to exhibit and the darkness it all hints at. The narrative progresses further to reveal that all of them are simply the manifestation of the trauma of a sexual assault survivor, and her attempts to cope with her reality. Her struggle with multiple personality disorder offers a notable comment on not simply mental health, but also on what abuse and harassment can truly mean for someone who is at its receiving end.
