The sole child of her emotionally distant and quickly failing father, Eve's lifelong struggle of connecting with her father comes to a head during a vicious argument. Though she's grown accustomed to his outbursts, this particular encounter leaves her fragmented. His looming death, coupled with decades of unresolved conflict fling Éve into a spiral of pleasure and desolation. We witness her dilemma through intimate moments in her monotonous life: smoking through a window, a purifying shower, aimless wandering and times of stillness. She has a cathartic scream in a farmer's field. Her desperate need for emotional proximity leads Eve into an evening of reckless behaviour that leaves her feeling violated. At her peak, Eve's father passes. She stands motionless, witnessing the burial. Suddenly, she is facing a roaring bonfire. The glow and crackling embers illuminate her nuanced expression. She watches as the fire rages on.
