A disillusioned writer follows her partner from Los Angeles into Venezuela's wilderness, expecting little more than an awkward holiday. Instead, she is plunged into a volatile country shaped by political unrest, raw beauty, and quiet danger. From uneasy nights in a remote jungle villa to serpentine rivers, towering waterfalls, and the sudden disappearance of their guide, the journey dissolves into a reckoning with uncertainty, and with what it means to move through unfamiliar places without control. Becoming Still reveals how travel can unravel us and restore us, and how stillness, even in the wildest places, can guide us home.
