In this queer-coded modern-day witch hunt, Eve, a woman working on the fringe of the mental health system, works a strange job that blurs the line between hired advocate and spy. Eve prides herself on professionalism, but Meda, her alluringly witchy, enigmatic new client, challenges her entire sense of truth and perception. On a sexy rollercoaster of ethical grey areas and spiritual awakening, Eve finds herself in the fight of her life, questioning the concept of loyalty and who gets to judge and shape reality, all in the midst of deep deception.
