In search for a peaceful mindset and greater understanding the character we follow in the story goes on a holiday but comes back with a philosophy which promises that she will begin to see the oneness in all things. However she starts to perceive that everyone in town is mimicking her.

Development Pitch
The story includes a few characters, where the bulk of the story takes place in a busy city. The story takes us on a number of strange encounters and experiences which open up a new perspective which we perceive from the protagonists point of view. However by the end of the story we see that this unique point of view begins to be shared by more than one individual. The office setting is where strange events begin to unravel. Philosophical and educating, but also a compelling psychological thriller.
