A love story where the boundaries between presence and absence, care and dependence, desire and control blur until they disappear. Leo and Anne pursue each other, touch each other, lose each other, search for each other. They cannot let go or be free. Ava's voice echoes through the rooms, traversing time and bringing to the surface what endures —and what can no longer be held back.
