Emily just started her job as a telephone psychic for a morally ambiguous spiritual callcenter. Emily herself isn’t a particularly spiritual person. Her readings follow a carefully thought out script and are vague at best. In a series of conversations with callers from varying walks of life, she discovers that perhaps there is something spiritual inside or around her after all.
