One-line pitch
A teen’s “dreams” reveal a hidden realm and the truth behind her past may be the key to crossing it.
Short synopsis
Alara is trying to live a normal teen life, but her nights are interrupted by vivid experiences that feel connected to another world and a “mountain heartbeat” presence she can’t explain. When she shares strange symbols linked to her past online, a stranger recognizes them and pushes for an in-person meeting. As the mystery escalates from online clues to real-world danger, Alara is pulled toward a high-stakes attempt to cross realms, ending with her falling into the unknown.
