Soft Breath

Eva, a Puerto Rican woman, assimilates loss by inadvertently summoning the ghost of her deceased Japanese husband, Takuya, in the aftermath of the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake. Over the course of a morning with Takuya, she will come to terms with their different views on their relationship, and ultimately what the meaning of home is as an immigrant.
