DETACHED
Lucas and Lily, a married couple trapped in the ruins of their relationship, sit down for what appears to be an ordinary breakfast. Beneath the quiet routine, however, lies the emotional decay of years shaped by lies, infidelity, and silence. As accusations cut deeper, their conversation becomes a battlefield where love slowly dies. Around them, the world begins to rot: food spoils, light disappears, and their bodies age in real time — exposing how time has been devouring them all along.
