The sun, which is shining high above all who wander outside enough to see it, is the brightest natural light we know. Humanity knows the light will brightly reveal our innermost secrets and stories, especially those of the people who chose the light of the stage as their beaming truth.
Mirim Teasdale, a writer working in a large Publishing firm in Seattle, Washington, in her mid-twenties, grown in the warm breezes of Oahu, Hawaii, discovers in a heat-induced trauma she is connected to an actress from the Golden Era of Hollywood. In the process of finding details of Parker McNamara´s story, Mirim follows her trail and shines her own light into the world of film stars and Hollywood's practices of those who were under contract, their abuse, and sometimes death.
Teasdale and McNamara have in common Hawaii, where Parker lived with her loving husband before and during the devasting bombing of Pearl Harbor. As Mirim realizes she can see into their past, she starts connecting their lives in order to discover she wants this story told, to tell their truth and life in a way which is perhaps connected with her own, as well as understanding her life and the love she feels for a man who became her friend and playmate, her colleagues and the affairs of her quiet life, Hawaiian upbringing, and her life in Seattle.
