Mercury Retrograde

Emily Segal, artist and trend forecaster in her 20s, tries to tell the future by reading the present. Literature finds commercial form in the shape of eXe, a mysterious and well-funded internet start-up that offers her a job. A conceptual take-over is deployed, gendered power play ensues; queerness incubates; memes converge. Set in New York City, post-Occupy and pre-Trump. Not actually about astrology.
