Synopsis
Mimi has left her mother and a dark secret behind in her village to come to the capital for graduate studies. She meets Sara, a former model, now a young mother with a rich, bullying husband. While Mimi works nights in her elderly uncle’s kiosk and occasionally dates passing customers, it becomes clear that it is not Sara’s husband, but motherhood that she craves. A succession of ever wilder liaisons between Sara and her husband, that Mimi witnesses, brings this psychological thriller to a powerful, dramatic climax.
