Newly discharged soldier Jess returns to her Florida hometown after three grueling tours of Afghanistan. She brings with her not only vivid memories of the war, but painful burns that have left her physically and emotionally scarred. Through the use of virtual reality therapy, Jess builds a breathtaking new world where she can escape from the pain, and begins to restore her relationships, her life, and eventually herself.

JESS - early 30s. Severely distorted by third degree burns, uses a walker. Quick-witted, intelligent, tough. Trying to have strength in her body, vulnerability in her life.

KACIE - Jess' older sister by a few years. Was probably beautiful once. Sweet, trying hard for positivity.

STEVIE - early 30s. An inviting smile that makes you want to live in it. Life just keeps happening to him.

KELVIN - Kacie's boyfriend. Older than Kacie. Too comfortable in his own skin.

VOICE/THEIR MOM - 60's. Passionate, powerful, maternal. Strong vocal quality
