โฆ Synopsis
In this richly unnerving tale about family secrets and expectations, two sisters are at lifelong odds with each other, their mother, and themselvesโand as every hour becomes more twisted than the last, they are all pushed to their breaking point.
Lovely and Beauty know their at home, beneath the watchful eye of their mother. Life has never included friends, an education, or anything the sisters can call their own. Their comings and goings are supervised by Farida. Otherwise, they donโt come and go at all.
That changes on Lovelyโs fortieth birthday. In a stroke of inexplicable fortune, Farida permits her eldest daughter to go to the Gausia Market alone, with no instructions but to abide by her curfew. For once on her own, Lovely is goaded by the voice in her head to push her motherโsโand her ownโboundaries.
New experiences and old memories abound as her family awaits her return. But with the taste of freedom so fresh on her tongue, Lovely is spurred on by her disembodied companion to hang on to her newfound independence. When home isnโt a safe haven, Lovely must find somewhere else to turn..M.F
