At the post office to send a postcard, Silvia's day continues to unfurl in unanticipated directions.

We return to the apartment where the day began, but this time meet characters in the homes surrounding, gaining a voyeuristic view into their lives, fantasies and unguarded private moments – including a painter intently cleaning her fake eyelashes, played by artist Ariana Papademetropoulos. Someone in a bathtub watches television, as a music video starring Billie Eilish fills our screens, playing in its entirety. These vignettes captured through the frames of the windows ultimately combine into a reversal of perspective, as Silvia once more takes centre stage. more S01E06 At The Vintage Shop 2020-11-21

In the final episode, featuring a cameo from Van Sant, Silvia wanders the phantasmagoric streets of Rome at night, and is drawn into a dreamlike moment involving a dress.
