Behind the polished smiles of a devout family lies a darkness no one dares to name.
Nine-year-old Janet lives a life dictated by church services, rules, and her father’s stern expectations. But one Sunday, her world begins to unravel when her father—an admired church deacon—breaks down in front of the congregation, exposing cracks in the perfect image he’s long maintained.
