A grounded sci-fi, coming 2025
After the stillbirth of her daughter, architect Carly retreats from the world, drifting through her days in a haze of grief and dressing gowns. Once driven by bold plans to design a sustainable model community, she now struggles to leave her bed. But everything changes when she discovers a mysterious, alien creature in the woods—an encounter that sparks an unexpected connection and the first flicker of healing. As Carly begins to re-engage with life, the world around her teeters on the brink of collapse, gripped by an escalating global crisis. Amid this growing chaos, Carly must confront what survival truly means—and what she's willing to risk to protect it.
