To film student Harper Vale, movies are a form of hallowed art. So when she moonlights as an extra on Ashes of Empire, she expects to be at the heart of cinematic magic. Instead, she finds herself in a world of endless retakes and freezing weather, a backdrop to a scene she doesn't even fully understand. Scene 47, Take 19 is a journey into the heart of Harper's disillusionment as her idealistic view of art collides with the messy reality of commerce. This is a story about the authenticity of emotions that exist even when the world around you is completely fake.
