Opening scene
Celestina has arranged a discreet meeting on a rooftop between two feuding houses. What was meant to be a simple barter of favours turns awkward when a witness appears who seeks not love but an old debt concealed within courtly messages. Words of love begin to look like alibis, and each step on the rooftop narrows the distance between desire and blackmail. Celestina must decide whether to turn the bargain into business, into rescue, or into a snare for the one who thinks he is manipulating her.
