Plot

Evan, a solitary former foster child nearing his thirties, makes his living in the shadowy world of penning suicide notes for others, a profession that demands emotional detachment. His life takes an unexpected turn when he becomes entangled with Charlotte, the enigmatic sister of a deceased client, during the latter's funeral. Despite her persistent efforts, Evan remains a fortress of silence, fabricating a bond with her late brother to mask his grim occupation. Simultaneously, Evan finds himself drawn into the melancholic vortex of Abel, a new client and creator of hold-line music, who is grappling with his own despair. As Charlotte gradually peels back Evan's layers of isolation, he finds himself opening up to Abel, revealing the intricate web of deception he has woven around Charlotte. Unseen crises loom on the horizon for the tightly wound Evan. His growing connection with Charlotte is built on a foundation of deceit, and his budding friendship with Abel teeters on the precipice of self-destruction. As he navigates these treacherous waters, Evan must confront the possibility of more dead ends in his already labyrinthine life. Can he break free, or is he destined to be forever entangled in a world of lies and despair?
