Four adolescent girls each spend their youth in the same farmhouse over the last century. Though separated by decades, resonances between their lives emerge: their desires and distress, secrets and truths, encounters with another’s gaze and defiant gaze in return.

Four generations of women in one family struggle with the expectations placed on them as mothers and partners. Their own dreams and desires for self-fulfillment are often left behind in the process. How can the traumas of the past be prevented from being passed down to the next generation? Will the cycle ever end, and will it ever be broken?
