A suspenseful and emotionally charged two-hander for two teenagers on the difficult subject of teenage suicide.

A young woman finds him there and initiates a conversation, but her readiness to slip into fantasies sounds a warning note. The young man eventually leaves the roof, apparently having come to terms with his difficulties - but the girl is fixated with death, and finally does what she had planned to do all along.
