PlotA middle-aged woman named Meridith lives a secluded life, dedicating herself to caring for her domineering and verbally abusive father. As their relationship spirals into an endless cycle of emotional manipulation and control, Meridith's grip on reality begins to weaken. Locked in this toxic environment, she reminisces about her lost youth and the opportunities she's missed, amplifying her sense of entrapment and despair. As the father's demands grow increasingly spiteful, Meridith's mental state deteriorates, torn between her duty as a caregiver and her desire for personal freedom.
Haunted by nightmares and suppressed memories, Meridith's isolation fuels a growing sense of rebellion within her. Her attempts to break free are met with resistance from her father, leading to escalating confrontations that chip away at her fragile psyche. Internal and external pressures converge as she wrestles with guilt, anger, and the longing for a life beyond her father's control. The tension reaches unbearable heights, pushing Meridith to make a series of drastic decisions that redefine the boundaries of her existence.
