Six Black filmmakers come together to create a story about healing and belonging. A flamboyant Black trans non-binary person seems to be lost in a park in Berlin after a party. The character is experiencing an intense feeling of dissociation. This has happened before, their mind takes them away to cope with trauma, anxiety, gender dysphoria and racism. They pass out and their Consciousness travels to another dimension where there is no time. Here, they meet 'Ancestors' who share messages for their journey towards healing.
