Arriving in Los Angeles intent on donating her kidney to an unwell friend, a woman known only to us as ‘She’, contemplates the magnetism of California. She had last come to seek her fortune, like the gold-diggers, health-seekers and film moguls before her, but here dreams went unfulfilled. Now, watching the clientele of a luxury hotel, she wonders why they are so lucky, why they don’t help those in need. Perhaps her brother was right to tell her there are no heroes. But there is an opportunity for karmic restoration here.
