Mia is a painter with one unshakable fixation.
Her subject is a girl she once knew-clueless, self-centred, convinced the world revolved around her. Lizzie thrived on attention, even as she pretended not to notice it.
Years pass. Paint is layered, scraped away, reapplied. Canvases are ruined and reborn. Yet no matter how obsessively Mia works, Lizzie remains-embedded in every canvas, every unfinished thought, every bone in her body.
From a distance, Mia watches as Lizzie appears to move on. She grows older. She changes. She convinces herself she is free.
But obsession does not require permission.
Lizzie may believe the past is behind her.
But Mia- Mia knows better.
