Ellis and Mira are brother and sister. He’s a caretaker and she’s a club kid. At its narrative core, this intimately close-up tale, deals with issues of neglect, loss and empathy. We constantly feel the incredibly strong bond between the main characters, as well as an intolerable pain and melancholy that constantly lures under the surface.
