About this submission

In a home robbery gone wrong, a criminal finds themselves held captive and face-to-face with their chosen victim, turned captor. Throughout the course of a single night, the two individuals find themselves oscillating between enemies and lovers through a conversation of choice, right/wrong, and the possibility of second chances— all while trying to read each other, unsure of the others’ truths and motives.
