Project Synopsis
When a woman embarks on a trip to meet an old friend at Shallow Creek Park, she begins to find small inconsistencies in her daily life that lead her to uncovering a murder set to happen three days in the future. As Felicity learns more about this tragedy, she slowly realizes that she is on a path to becoming the victim, and attempts to avoid her fate by any means possible. However, no matter what Felicity does she cannot escape her violent end, revealing the truth of her existence: that she was never the real Felicity Carmen Felix in the first place. An exploration of autonomy, paranoia, and control, this short thriller asks whether fate is something that can be altered or whether it is permanently programmed.
