“Silence affects everyone in the end.”
When an arranged marriage brings Ada and her spirited daughter to the wilderness of nineteenth-century New Zealand, she finds herself locked in a battle of wills with both her controlling husband and a rugged frontiersman to whom she develops a forbidden attraction.
A deeply sensual and melancholic journey into forbidden desire, set against a wild, untamed landscape. It's a raw, intimate exploration of passion, communication, and the fierce spirit of a woman yearning for expression amidst oppressive forces. The film feels both grand and intensely personal.
