Synopsis

A teenage girl writes to Mr. S Harris, a death row inmate she's never met, under the pseudonym "Zoe." What begins as an unlikely correspondence between two strangers becomes a desperate attempt for Zoe to process a secret guilt no one else can know — and what they both share in common about loss, love, and the choices that lead someone to end up on Death Row. Told through alternating letters and flashbacks, Ketchup Clouds is a tense, emotionally charged coming-of-age story set against the backdrop of an impending execution.
