After an incident, Paul, Nora, and their teenage son Hans decide to live in seclusion in a house, far from the world. On the surface, everything seems normal: meals, games, minor conflicts. But little by little, daily life unravels. Tensions mount. Paul, suspended from his job, decides to homeschool his son to become his sole tutor and to resume his novel, which he had abandoned. Nora, torn between her professional ambitions and the needs of the family, wavers. Hans, isolated, observes and endures, seeking refuge in other worlds. The house becomes the stage for a gradual confinement. Objects malfunction, roles are reversed. Fictional real estate viewings, hazy memories, apparitions: reality cracks, as if eaten away from within.
