Project Description

Synopsis:

The story dives into toxic family relationships built on trauma and absolute insanity. Trudy (the blind sister) is abused by her mother, Abigail, through her suffocating and disturbing methods of caregiving. Abigail puts all of her time and attention into caring for Trudy, leaving her to feel like a captive, until she commits suicide.

In contrast, the other daughter, Samantha, is severely tortured (mentally, emotionally, and physically) by Abigail throughout her life. She repeatedly but vainly begs for Abigail’s affection even after Trudy passes away. Sam sees her mother going crazy after her sister’s tragic death and comes to a realization that the only thing Abigail truly loved and connected to was the care she gave to her helpless daughter, Trudy. Sam takes the ultimate step and decides to wound herself to become just like her sister in a last ditch effort to be loved by her mother. When she reveals her new, gruesome self to Abigail, the woman suddenly finds something within herself to keep on living. But only until the last breath of Samantha on her hands...
