The new receptionist, Jessica, is gifted an access card by her older boss Frank, making her feel uncomfortable. After telling her boyfriend, he dismissively tells her to try forgetting about it, but Frank's unwelcome actions only grow more persistent. Each day there is another layer of harassment not only by her boss but from everyone who surrounds her. This noir short film explores the subtle, yet relentless, nature of harassment. Showing how the power dynamics at play, can be hard to call out, and how reclaiming that power can be a quieter act.
