Gaia, a young archaeology student, sees her life shattered after suffering a sexual assault. The experience destabilizes her, affecting her relationship with her father, her friends, and her own identity. Her professor, who also experienced gender-based violence in the past, offers her a space for mutual understanding. Like in an archaeological excavation, Gaia must explore her own past and unearth layers of memories, fears, and silences as she tries to make sense of what happened and find a way forward.
