The Waves

Rachel’s suicide seems inevitable. Trapped in the moment where she must decide, Rachel seeks answers from her mothers; Kane, Plath and Woolf. In a state somewhere between a dream and a nightmare, memories collide as Rachel desperately tries to understand what brought her here, what she ought to do next, and who she actually is. Is there hope even in this dark corner of her mind?
