An Empty Box Full of Stuff

By Ornella Sabti

Newlyweds John and Akira were never madly in love. John decided to marry Akira on the basis that it was time to settle. They live a routine life in Roseland, a quiet middle-class suburb of Toronto. Akira befriends their conservative neighbors and demands that John fit her image of what a good husband should be, but it’s not him. John devotes more time to his guitar than to his wife. Desperate for attention, Akira embarks on a lesbian love affair with her old high school classmate Kyla, only to find out Kyla is also a guitarist. Akira is trapped between two people who seem more passionate about their music than about her. Will Akira ever find happiness?
