Between life and death, a young ghost comes to terms with her loneliness when she becomes a spectator of the life around her. Through these observations, we get a glimpse into her dreams, memories, and anxieties while she navigates an isolating change. As her longing for a place in the world grows, she comes to realize that ghosts may never be able to leave the places they love – or that they may go everywhere, looking to be alive.
