The film shows how daily routines erode the mind and limit choices as they follow a suburban family of four living in a mirrored villa that feels like an art installation. The scarcely seen son, a thirty‑something with asthma and eczema, manipulates his family, turning home life into a ritual of appeasing his whims and awaiting a “health crisis.”
