Fear
A young woman lives with her husband in a small apartment, a convenient refuge from external problems—the pandemic and social upheavals. When her husband goes away on a business trip, she, having not set foot in the house for a month, begins to experience strange things. Objects disappear from under her hands, a window opens by itself, or soil appears in the apartment. She is plagued by bad dreams and visions of her late mother.
