Description
After witnessing a terrible accident, Sasha locks herself in her room and completely shuts herself off from the outside world. She doesn’t want to die—she just no longer finds life enjoyable. Sometimes, when no one is home, Sasha leaves her room, but she hasn’t stepped beyond the house in nine months. Her room has become a prison, where she is simultaneously the guard and the prisoner. Sasha has cut herself off from everyone she loves: she doesn’t talk to her parents, doesn’t reply to messages from her beloved grandmother and best friend… Even to her younger sister, Elsa, she cannot explain anything. Exactly that—cannot. And it isn’t a matter of choice or desire.
