A Happy Ending in 3 Parts
An exploration of an abusive relationship told in three contrasting genres. The first part, told as a romantic comedy, introduces us to Evelyn--a young intern--and Whitney, her boss, and we see them begin a relationship. The second part, told as horror, shows us the beginning of the abuse. The last part, told as a film noir, shows us the aftermath of the relationship and the last effects of trauma.
