Title:Contretemps

Anna has a regime that she rigorously follows since she suffers from OCD. But all of it goes for a toss when her sister forgets an instrument, and all the balance is thrown off. To restore it, Anna must confront a world beyond her power in which her worries and crippling anxiety manifest in this personal, polished, and unexpectedly emotional short film. This film, fortunately or unfortunately, has the power to strike a chord with viewers.
