ACRYLIC & BILE

SYNOPSIS

Rhonda’s art only exists if Zoe is sick. Zoe suffers from Stendhal syndrome—a rare condition that causes her to vomit at the sight of great beauty. What began as a debilitating reaction has become the foundation of Rhonda’s work, transforming a physical symptom into a toxic creative ritual. As a career-defining gallery deadline approaches, the cost of that ritual becomes impossible to ignore. When Zoe begins to resist the role her body plays in the art, their relationship fractures, exposing the fragile line between devotion and exploitation.
