    Two centuries apart, they were never meant to meet. After losing her job and abandoning her dream of starting a band, a girl moves to a new city trying to outrun the quiet feeling that she's failed her life. In her new apartment, she finds a mirror that doesn't behave like it should. In another century, a man grieving over the death of his sister discovers a hidden artifact with her belongs- something she protected, catalogued wrong, and never explained. A mirror that holds half the features of a human and an entity. Through glass and time, they begin to speak. What starts as curiosity turns into connection. What turns into connection becomes obsession. And as the mirror warps reality around them, time itself begins to fracture memories bleed, worlds distort, and the line between real life and hallucinations disappears. Some discoveries aren't meant to be understood. Aren't meant to hold an answer And once the mirror answers back, nothing stays untouched.
