An analogy for breaking generational trauma and the sacrifices of motherhood in the darkest, saddest possible way. If you need a happy ending or even a clear resolution this isn’t for you. I honestly liked it but the plot was way too slow, I had to force myself through until about halfway when it picked up a smidge.
