    abSolution Reading

Submit
By: Brenden Dahl
Directed By: Kaitlyn Tierney

Featuring:
Gabe Calderon - Emmanuel
Jaylyn Anderson - Valerie
Jessica Stahl - Clinician/Computer
Manny blames himself for Val’s death, and it’s eating him alive. 
 
So he goes to abSolution™, a company with the technology to edit a person's emotional response to memory.
 
Manny is forced to relive his relationship with Val, as a clinician twists her words and actions to present a version of reality he can live with. But when Manny wakes up, he realizes that there may be more to absolution than he'd originally thought.
​

Appropriate for ages 17+. Contains mature language and references to sex, drug use and violence.
