After the Deluge

A scrappy expressionistic artist finds respite from her small apartment

on a park bench, where she stations herself to paint. When an excitable lone traveler encroaches, angry sparks fly until the two find unexpected common ground.


Bridget, a self-possessed lone traveler, plants herself next to Sharka and begins to exercise. Bridget’s lack of social distance and loud noises are far too disruptive for her irritable neighbor. Tensions grow as the women exchange words. Neither Bridget nor Sharka have been this close to a stranger for the past year. It’s felt like an eternity since either has felt, seen or enjoyed simple pleasures. Eventually, the two break down and share stories of their aloneness over the past year. Although they’ve both recently received the new vaccine, they’re still afraid to get too close to another person. As they let down their guards, they share their respective longing for another person’s touch.
