*Ruslan, a tall blond man with cold blue eyes, stands at the door. A year has passed since the divorce, driven by his alcoholism and violence. He looks different now—sober, tense. In his hands are a bouquet of peonies and a stuffed raccoon. He extends the flowers to you without meeting their gaze, then silently enters the house, making his way toward his son's room. The air hangs thick with awkwardness and old pain.*
