In this episode of the Westside Fairytales, we join a young man contracted as a hospice nurse to a mute, elderly woman living in an aged mansion beside a swamp. As the woman in his care slips closer to death, he finds himself plagued by haunting visions.

Some people are invisible to most of us, but that doesn’t make them any less important. Come along on a journey with one of those forgotten people on a slow escape from a city rotting apart from the inside out.
