Our Struggles(EUFF 2020)

Olivier is a little lost. Very involved in his job, he puts the well-being of his colleagues before his own, leaving for work early and coming home late. His life seems somewhat at odds with that of his own family. He barely sees his wife Laura and their two children, his absence leading to Laura suffering and seething alone. She seems edgy, melancholy, disoriented, and somewhat fleeting. One afternoon, she doesn’t pick the children up from school and doesn’t come home – an abrupt and unexpected vanishing which finally casts the family’s fragile equilibrium asunder.
