HINDSIGHT

Written and performed by Ophira Eisenberg
Ever try to solve problems with mistakes?
At 17 years old, the young and confused Ophira Eisenberg left home to travel halfway across the world inspired by two new wave songs and a bad Australian movie. She left to build an identity but what she created was a mess.

Love. Sex. Drama. And the Paris of the Prairies.
When you stumble through life blindly, sometimes you're just left with... HINDSIGHT
