Plot
Zoey floats through life in a deprivation chamber of insomnia and anxiety, drowning in self-destructive thoughts. Time has no meaning, darkness envelops her. She uncontrollably erupts into bouts of anguish where the siren's song of substance abuse promises to ease her pain, secretly becoming her true master. Her shame and self-loathing is a prison from which she lies to family and friends, assuring them that she has everything under control. But in a rare, lucid moment, Zoey will try to reclaim herself with her music.
