Maya and Santiago haven’t seen each other since their explosive relationship ended years ago, so neither is expecting to be sitting across from each other at a professional dinner with their new partners. Maya teeters through this minefield of delicate power dynamics as she relives some of her most painful and electric memories. Fighting dissociation and embodied trauma, she must stay focused on the dinner's high stakes for her partner, Jio, as both couples contend with their realities. The past and present collide, and Maya faces Santiago at last.
Two friends respond to the challenges of the present by connecting through a playful provocation.

As a rule, each letter is formally and thematically inspired by a woman experimental filmmaker.
