Eve, a 40-something Asian-Canadian Woman, begins to question her very existence at the end of a passionate love affair with Sam. Her search for answers launches her on a liminal journey through memory, fantasy, and recurring encounters with a mysterious being whose motives aren't always clear. Veering between hard scrabble insights and emotional honesty--all leavened with a fine appreciation of the absurd--Eve finds herself trying to make sense of her beloved grandmother's legacy as she seeks to reconcile personal integrity with true love.
