Description

What I remember best about that week in January is trying to keep track of all the lies I told... 1998. Ontario has been hit by a days-long, life-endangering ice storm, and on Regis University campus, with classes cancelled, the students are partying.

In the midst of it all, eighteen-year-old Ros's roommate Megan goes missing.

As a panicked search ensues, Ros is blamed for not keeping a closer eye on Megan, and the incident casts a shadow over the next two decades of her life. 2020. Ros's former partner, Lukas, the father of her eleven-year-old son, is accused of a sexual assault.

The accusation brings new details of an old story to light, forcing Ros to revisit a dark moment from her past.

Ros must take a hard look not only at the father of her child, but also at her own mistakes, her own trauma, and at the supposedly liberal period she grew up in.
