It begins with Victor, who reflects on his recent interactions and the return of his daughter, Nesta. As he contemplates his role as a father and his relationship with his wife, Nataly, we see the emotional complexities unfolding within their family. Nesta's interactions with her father and a notable absence of her mother convey a sense of tension, highlighting the threads of affection, anxiety, and societal judgment that weave through their lives. We are introduced to a circle of acquaintances that complicate their relationships further, particularly the influence of a figure known as Mrs. Marsett.
