A brilliant young woman achieving well ahead of schedule carrying her immigrants parents' anxieties and hopes comes to this small room in which the bed is bolted to the floor in the middle of the night for temporary refuge. There's so much to deal with. Finals, four jobs, moving across the country, coming out to her family, racism, familial trauma, whatever you call this thing that's happening to this country right now, a pandemic, and an unfolding world war on a rapidly dying planet. She doesn't know if she wants to live anymore.
