Warm

Anders is a meticulous, sharply dressed man on the verge of a night that could change everything. He has just realized he is in love with Judy, the woman he is about to pick up, and he imagines a perfect evening of kisses and a proposal. Yet the excitement is tinged with nervous dread as he wrestles with the absurdity of his own feelings.

Just as he steadies himself, a disembodied voice calls out from inside his mind, pleading for help and claiming to be trapped in some unknown limbo. Anders, who prides himself on his sanity, is forced to decide whether to engage with the stranger in his head, even as reality flickers—colors warp, proportions shift, and his surroundings briefly dissolve into a surreal tableau. The encounter sets him on an uneasy path that blurs the line between love, perception, and the unknown.
