Lily's life took a sharp turn three months ago on 'The Night on the Bathroom Floor' when she discovered her sister Alice in a moment of self-harm. Since that harrowing experience, Lily has done everything she can to maintain a semblance of normalcy for herself and her family. However, as Alice prepares to return home from her treatment program, Lily is confronted with the rush of emotions she has strived to suppress.
Enter Micah, a fellow student with his own troubled past, who understands Lily's struggle more than she realizes. Having shared treatment with Alice, Micah gently nudges Lily to confront not only what her sister has gone through but also the turbulent currents of her own mind. Encased in her armor of perfectionism, Lily is besieged by a typhoon of anxiety, compulsions, and shrouded thoughts that claw for release.
An unexpected school art project, which challenges students to find poetry in the mundane, becomes the conduit for Lily's emotional journey. She discovers that the words she has kept imprisoned yearn for the light, aching to tell her story. It's a narrative about mental resilience, the unspoken bonds of family, and the redemptive grace of art.
