Demi, a young Latina woman, has everything going for her—a close-knit family, a career, and her loving boyfriend, Omar. Then COVID-19 hits. As the pandemic isolates Demi from the people she loves, her fears manifest as nightmares of a destructive storm. Illustrated in a black and white color palette, this vivid animation explores how people cope with overwhelming situations.
