Playa

2023 · 14 min

A small, tense pandemic-era encounter that turns a routine delivery into an uneasy, human exchange.

Overview
Set during the COVID-19 pandemic, Carlos, a beleaguered pizza delivery driver, damages his bicycle trying to avoid a collision with an eccentric woman. She promises to take him to her delivery address if he helps her jump-start her van.
