In the box
“They want to explode and they end up imploding, which sometimes is the only way to survive”
Synopsis
Marco, an ordinary man in his early 40’s, Zoe, a 25 year old bold young girl, and Laura, an icy and elegant bourgeois middle aged lady, are trapped in a labyrinth of fragility and inner torment. Despite having reached a breaking point, they desperately try to hide their emotional turmoil, adopting toxic strategies and self-harming behaviors to survive their daily routine. Confronting their inner demons won’t mean a permanent solution to their suffering.
