My Safe Zone

Synopsis

Alin and Jane grew up next door to one another, sharing the familiarity and emotional closeness of childhood best friends. Alin’s decision to study overseas interrupts that bond before either woman has properly understood what it means. Years later, a broken engagement brings Alin home and back into Jane’s life. Returning does not simply restore their old friendship: Jane has been left with hurt, while feelings that once went unspoken now demand attention. As they reconnect, the women must negotiate the distance between remembered security and the people they have become. This is a second-chance sapphic romance about friendship changing shape, the consequences of leaving, and whether the person who once felt like home can become a partner in the present.
