SYNOPSIS: At 40, Sarah is forced to confront a painful truth: she’s trapped in a marriage held together by the faded illusions of love. As her 13-year-old son begins to navigate the turbulence of adolescence, the dangers of staying—emotionally and psychologically —become impossible to ignore. Seeking refuge, Sarah relocates to a long-abandoned estate, a place suspended between past and present. Surrounded by the remnants of other people’s lives—and armed only with her lifelong obsession with Pride and Prejudice—she begins to reimagine her own story.
