"Every love story is framed by walls. Only the square footage differs."

[Clouds: Ahead]

The late-twenty-something filmmaker trades a long-term relationship and a secure apartment for a return to her parents’ home and the uncertainty of a new romance. As she gazes at the sky, she imagines her view extending to a more promising future, one in which she can afford a place of her own. Window frames become portals for reflection, within which she uses personal archival material to reinterpret a life crisis and portray relationships with the people she once shared, currently shares, and hopes one day to share a living space with. Perspectives of her former and current partners reveal how the housing crisis is reshaping the lives and relationships of a generation. This is a story about living within frames and dreaming beyond them, bounded by the cinematic frame itself, within which anything is possible—even keeping your head in the clouds when economic reality keeps pulling you back down to earth.
