Iris keeps an alley cinema alive with bodies and light—until the money vanishes and her dancers do, too. Cas, the auditor sent to shut her down, returns for reasons he can’t audit: her.
A patron’s ultimatum sparks a last chance—one night, a live shadow duet, double the audience. With no partner, Iris teaches Cas to move in darkness: rules first, breath second, silk between them.
Opening night, an old mentor threatens to claim her work. Cas exposes the letter to the crowd; Iris answers with truth. Their duet turns consent into spectacle—every yes heard, every boundary seen.
Applause is easy; aftermath isn’t. Scrutiny, policy, a city learning to breathe. Together they build a language of trust—contracts, safewords, aftercare—until desire feels like home.
When power knocks again, Iris and Cas must choose what to reveal and what to keep only for two: love that thrives in shadow and holds in the light.
