Ownerships
Vera and Lucas, a frustrated couple in their forties, find a huge apartment at half the usual price thanks to a “bare ownership” deal: they buy it now, but the elderly owner will keep living there until he dies.

Caught between suspicion, frustration, and increasingly dark humor, the couple begins to consider a plan as absurd as it is tempting.
