Storyline
1937, somewhere in Eastern Europe, the city’s buzzing with dreams of becoming the next big thing—modern, shiny, everything people want to show off. At the heart of all this is the wife of the city’s director, who’s got her own problems to deal with. Out of nowhere, a dead intersex baby turns up in a sand heap—yeah, you read that right. And nobody wants to talk about it. Suddenly, all that pride and ambition everyone’s been flexing gets shoved aside, and people start freaking out about their own secrets, their biases, the stuff they’d rather not admit. The wife starts poking around, digging up more than just sand, and what she finds makes everyone squirm. The city’s shiny image gets a pretty nasty crack as folks scramble to dodge responsibility. What starts as a mystery nobody wants to touch ends up exposing the whole town’s ugly underbelly—prejudice, shame, the works. And honestly, nobody gets out clean. The modern dream? Yeah, not as pretty as it looked on the surface.
