Synopsis
A seemingly perfect family of four arrives at a luxury residential complex to spend their summer vacation, only to have their carefully constructed lives shaken by unexpected events. Following the mysterious death of one of the workers at the complex, a silent conflict emerges between the residents and the workers, fueled by class divisions, privilege, conscience, and social justice.
What appears to be a peaceful holiday destination gradually transforms into a battleground where everyone is forced to confront the fears they have long suppressed. By the end of the vacation, none of them will be the same.
