Drawing on the filmmaker's own experiences of insomnia, this nocturnal transmission looks at outer space through the X-ray specs of (un)consciousness. The night sky and the mind's eye have more in common than you'd ever dream—friction points and connecting dots that form constellations of avian images, clusters of Ambien text, galaxies of work worry and sleep debt.

Three years after the death of her beloved child, Elouise, Mara still feels her presence when she sits on the butterfly bedding in front of the jar with her ashes in it. Mara arranges a twelfth birthday party for Elouise, further alienating her from her husband, Richter, and remaining daughter, Hannah. Although Mara eventually vacates Elouise's room at the insistence of her husband, she does find a way to stay close to Elouise. Before long, however, Hannah discovers her mother's secret.

Emma returns to her childhood home only to find her past catching up with her.
