Storyline: As Kaya packs up her apartment to move in with her boyfriend, Max, she is transported into a whimsical, labyrinthine tunnel where her belongings float around her. Drifting among her mementos, each object urgently pulls Kaya from one memory to the next, taking her through a series of emotions. The tunnel guides her toward acceptance of her new home—reinforcing U-Haul as “The Way to What’s Ahead.”
