## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

Snow White’s stepmother meets Tangerine in a neon-lit bus station. A washed-up magician, a stripper with a heart of gold, a bartender with a missing hand and a young widow with a death wish all cross paths over one rain-soaked Christmas. Four broken souls trade small change for small mercies in a city of endless, flickering light.

**Mood tags**: bittersweet, raw, tender
