Synopsis: A young woman confined by her inner-city surroundings, Martha has stopped listening to her intuition and her life is suffering as a result. But, when a strange encounter forces Martha to see her world a little differently, she must embrace the seemingly irrational as she embarks on a surreal journey of discovery, learning to not only listen to, but trust her gut instincts once again.
