Out Now
It’s 5 months after the death of Curtis’ partner Mia due to post-birth complications. As the initial fog of grief starts to lift, he is at a crossroads of how he wants to raise their daughter Salome.
Sleep-deprived and isolated from the world, it’s just him and Salome in their downtown city condo. He works remotely, Head of Engineering for a small tech startup. He becomes more obsessed with the car modification forum he moderates, further buying expensive things for his car that he cannot afford. It’s his escape. He does this all whilst looking after Salome.
Things soon start to fall apart around him. His job is at risk as the project he’s in charge of starts to crash-dive. His relationship with his mother and mother-in-law becomes more fractured.
All he wants is Mia back in his life so that they can raise their daughter together, as they both dreamt of it. But as reality starts to creep in, will he even be able to take care of himself?
