Third Floor, Corridor

Jenna, a heavily pregnant mother along with her young son Michael book a last minute room at a cheap airport hotel. However with no luggage to speak of they don’t seem to be traveling to or from anywhere in particular. Jenna, on-edge and awkward appears to be waiting there for someone.

Constantly training an eye from her room on the people arriving at the hotel she puts up a lame front and tries to act the loving mother despite her feelings of fear and rage for whats to come. She clutches onto her purse as if it held some great secret or a harmful weapon.

As we live with the fragile parent and demanding child for a short time, bound to the interior of the hotel we come to know them more intimately, for better and worse. Jenna's complex relationship with her son becomes unwieldy and her motivation for bringing her only child and unborn baby into the middle of a potentially life changing confrontation is exposed...
