A contemporary four-character drama set in the waiting room of a Bus Depot. Two men and two women have come together for an unexpected reunion of sorts. Winston is a writer on the run from the west coast. Claire is an aspiring actress who will kill - almost - to get herself up on the silver screen. Billy is a vet of the recent war - seeking to reclaim his life and his spirit. Bijou is a modern hippie chick from New Orleans who has come to the desert to connect with the intensity of the surrounding earth. in the process, the characters discover what they're going towards - and running away from. One of the primary conflicts in the story is that of force and power versus peace and love as a way to resolve human conflicts. There is an experimental/performance art approach to the editing of the images that gives a stream-of-conscious or altered sense of reality.

The flashbacks are woven together with contemporary scenes of the police brutalizing protesters during the Republican National Convention in New York City, in 2004. The stream-of-conscious flow portrays two simultaneous realities that overlap and become one.

Inspired by certain themes and moments from Luis Bunuel's Belle du Jour. Brief clips from the film are woven together with a trance-like, repetitive flow of the sometimes clear, sometimes obscure fantasies, erotic and otherwise, that emerge from the daily ritual of existence - particularly in a contemporary, urban (and downtown) landscape.
