Synopsis:

The film narrates the story of three women who are connected to each other through the invisible string of trauma and isolation. In the absence of motion, the spectator deep dives into a manic silence, into the expansive loneliness of the trauma and alienation. The images investigate the entire time and timelessness of human existence in an isolated space and the enigmatic territory between fiction and reality. With a lucidity that is both daring and tragic, the film explores the extremity of a woman's inner life and the painful traces of memory when the outer world is at an impasse. The women of the film constantly ruminate on the determined embrace of life in all its complexity and confusion on one hand and on the idea of death on the other, where the absolute limits of survival are tied to the sense of the border between two. A border that does not exist.
