SYNOPSIS
A woman, MIMI, possibly homeless, enters an expensive Brooklyn Open-House. The apartment, for sale and open to potential buyers for the day. And we sense that she loves and mourns the space. In time we’ll discover that she lived there some fifty years before with her own family. MIMI grabs a pair of keys, and that night enters the apartment, while the family sleeps. AMY, the only child, wakes up and with surprise and fear approaches the woman, thinking she is a fairy, a witch, a dream… a visit from the past, a warning of what’s to come.
