A melancholic, paranoia-tinged romance about two people bound by forbidden love and digital distance, where intimacy becomes suspect.

The relationship between Ed, a married astronomer and Amy, his lover, who spend their years apart, is based only on phone calls and texts. One day Amy begins noticing something strange in Ed's messages.
