What happens when the choices you made come back to haunt you? Set in Lagos, Nigeria, Zhulfah Ilyas comes back home after University, only to feel the four walls of her home squeezing in on her. There is a hollowness in her, a guilt she carries, and she finds herself making choices to redeem herself. Impulsive, some would say, but she has thought through the reality of how her future would be, even though getting married wasn't in the equation anytime soon. They say relationships hold up a mirror to show who you are. The question is, what happens to the self and the relationship when the reflection isn't one Zhulfah is willing to face?
