After a life-altering medical diagnosis, artist Youandi is confronted with her unresolved past. In a hallucinatory inner world, memories, song lyrics, and interviews blend into a hybrid cinematic experience.

While recording her debut album, singer Youandi receives a devastating diagnosis: multiple sclerosis, a disease that attacks and weakens the nervous system. As her physical body begins to fail her, she searches for stability in music, memories of her mother, and her artistic imagination.

In this visual blend of documentary and fiction, Youandi delves into her past—marked by trauma, violence, and self-destruction—and confronts the memories that haunt her. Guided by her own lyrics, she navigates the depths of her mental inner world and finds the strength to face her past and embrace her future.
