The camera glides across a living room bathed in afternoon sun, motes of dust swirling in the beams. The memory of eight years of apparent marital harmony hangs in the silence, fractured by the echo of a final, violent quarrel.

Tom takes a deliberate step forward, the broken fragments of their family life held in suspension by this quiet, weekly ritual.
