A haunting animated meditation on guilt, loss, and the weight of a father's tragic mistake, told through fragmented memories and the slow journey toward acceptance.

A weathered Sheriff returns to the remains of an accident he has spent a lifetime trying to forget. With each step forward, the memories come flooding back. Faced with his mistake once again, he must find the strength to carry on.
