Drama Romance

After her husband’s death, Sonia is forced to shrink her life, trading her sprawling family home for a cramped, unfamiliar apartment. In this state of displacement, her world is a quiet hum of grief and rigid routines, until she hears the rhythm of a neighboring construction site. There she meets Aimé, a Haitian worker whose presence awakens a dormant yet intense desire. Their connection is swift and tender, yet their romance exists in a crossfire.
