Village Keeper

After a downturn forces a return to the housing project of childhood, a protective mother struggles to shield her children from the violence and instability she knows too well. Gripped by fear and fiercely guarding her family, she secretly cleans an abandoned crime scene—an act that quietly sets off a chain reaction. What follows is a journey through generational silence, buried rage, and painful self-discovery. As long-held secrets unravel, she must finally decide what it means to put herself first.
