2020 · Movie · 97 min. · Canada
Fred (O'Brien) is not a detective, a secret agent or a philosopher. He's a normal guy approaching 30 and going through an existential crisis as he finds himself on the precipice of full-blown adulthood. Should Fred commit to his long-term girlfriend? Should he take a corporate job to pay the bills and let go of his dream of becoming an artist? Should he paint the walls of his new condo Sea Foam Blue or Burnt Umber? After a chance encounter with a man forgotten from his youth, Fred literally and metaphorically journeys into his past. He slowly begins to unravel a long hidden mystery about a missing girl, a drug called Mercury, and a terrifying creature that has now followed him into adulthood - As past, present and future begin to intersect and parallel each other, Fred explores all the possible lives he could lead. Which one will he choose?
