- Tagline
- A woman on the verge of a career breakthrough is having another breakthrough entirely: Gushes of glitter are pouring out of her during one of the most important interviews of her life, and there's no signs of stopping.
- Overview
- Minutes into Lee's virtual job interview, glitter begins pouring out of her inexplicably. Although she does her best to carry on with the meeting, tiny, shiny particles are cascading out of her, pooling at her bare feet, and engulfing her toes. In this too-surreal moment, Lee must acknowledge the shiny, shimmering elephant in the room, or else risk being buried in a mound of unresolved issues... and glitter.
