Concordia is a tragic yarn regarding the never ending pursuit of finding purpose in art. It's also a cautionary tale about choosing your roommate. Our protagonist is Meg, an aspiring actress who seeks validity for the range of her performance ability, but is worn down by the constant waves of rejection within the world of her rough and tumble profession. Meg lives on the couch of her radical and fastidious best friend Licia, an up and coming filmmaker struggling with attachment issues who is on an existential quest to find the formula for truth within art. The biggest thing keeping Meg in Licia's grasp is the cat she co-adopted, a fluffy-white furball named Arthur. Meg sees a golden opportunity to start her new life with Arthur and escape the clutches of her slightly-tyrannical best friend when she nails an audition for the role of a lifetime. All Meg needs to do is shoot a final screen test. And tell her roommate. Our story recounts the events post-audition over the course of a single night. Meg returns home and finds her path to eminence derailed when Licia accuses her of fatally injuring Arthur, who has gone missing. As tensions between the two artists boil, Meg slowly discovers that the only way she can escape is if she participates in Licia's ritualistic new cinema project: a hyper-stylized re-enactment of Arthur's assault.
