Simmer is a 15-minute narrative drama concerning a young, black high school student named Carter Williams. The film weaves us in and out of a subconscious space where Carter processes suppressed emotions triggered by events and relationships in the real world.

Over the course of the story, the conflict blends both real and imagined spaces parallel to Carter’s evolution from repression to expression.
