Fade tells the story of Lucia, a Mexican-born novelist navigating life as a "diversity hire" TV writer in a white, male-dominated Hollywood. When she forms a complicated friendship with Abel, the American-born Mexican janitor in her building, shared heritage collides with ambition, class, and identity. Will it unite them-or pull them apart?
