A mother lives alone in a house in the countryside with her eight-year-old son. To defend him from an external threat, she creates a parallel world through a particular stratagem so as not to make him feel the same terror that she feels every time it presents itself, keeping him in the dark about everything, and making him believe that it's all a game. But this time it might not be enough.
