"KALAS" (A.Glass 2020)

 

"On the cusp of a pandemic, Sarika Kalas awakes in her room, unperturbed by the events unfolding. As winter beckons and the streets darken. It is the city, all she's ever known, a place of her indifference and its peripheral. What seems like a catastrophe for many, Kalas knows only of the day that holds meaning. From her dreams, which fade quickly, three individuals, in this time of calamity, enter her life. All hold a familiarity. Yet, she senses a resonation that are shadows of the past, to the ones that were close to her, that are no longer here. Yearning to return. And as the city goes into quarantine to contain the outbreak, Kalas retreats further back into her thoughts, while a coincidence of events begin to accumulate. Nature bares no interest in its impassivity. Yet she thinks about her deceased mother, before Kalas was born, of interactions that she never knew. Remembering a letter from her late father, that may hold a key to an event, despite the viral contagion, which will further transform society."
