Emma loses her voice on stage and with it, the life she has built. Her career begins to unravel, her relationships fracture and she is forced to confront the shadows and traumas she has spent years avoiding.
At the edge of collapse, she enters a shamanic trance where reality slips into the surreal. There, she meets Nino, a mysterious guide who leads her toward the rebirth she has long been searching for.
