Liminal
The outsider returns to her childhood home to check on her ailing father, stepping into a past that no longer belongs to her. The house feels heavy with silence, her younger sister withdrawn, as if guarding something unspoken. As their father’s condition worsens, the boundaries between memory and reality begin to blur, leading the outsider toward a moment of reckoning. The sisters begin to reconnect through the weight of the truth they now share.
