Blu Cosette
Rebecca, an eccentric woman, who dreams of finding a way to fit into the world. With a hint of magical realism, Rebecca builds windows into the outside world with picture frames. We follow her in and out of the frames to catch glimpses into her mind. She is oblivious to most things favoring the fantasies of her mind and creates stories of those who surround her. On this perfect summer day, where the flowers bloom, she fancies the pedestrians who intrude into her garden sanctuary as invaders. She is left bare to a direct assault to her personal space, a fellow luncher with his sandwich. As the menagerie of her mind collides against the simple reality of the present. Fragile, vulnerable, and weaponless she finds love.
