沉没 Sink

NADIA is a 40-year-old wife and mother of three children. Despite her seemingly perfect life, she struggles with her marriage and identity, which also causes her to be distant from her role as a mother. Nadia has a close friendship with her eldest son, BASIL, who is 17 years old and a high school senior known for his academic success. He has always been peculiar and antisocial. One day, Basil is triggered at school and gets into serious trouble, resulting in his suspension. Nadia is on the verge of burnout as she tries to care for him in her own way, ensuring he focuses on his health and exams. However, as she struggles to manage her own crisis and his dark, playful state of mind, she slowly finds herself sinking into his undiagnosed mental illness, while her denial of the truth about him grows. As Basil’s mental health deteriorates, his manic and elated moods push his mother to experience beautiful feelings of liberation. Soon, the situation spirals out of control.
