5 Houses - Struggle, Connection, Resilience, Redemption
In a tapestry of lives intertwined by fate and circumstance, five souls find their destinies entangled. An aging teacher clings desperately to her cherished home; a young man grapples with society's cruel judgment of his sexuality; a devoted nun is unjustly ousted from the very school she dedicated her life to; an elderly farmhand contends with both his past and eerie hauntings on a rustic farm; and a boy, shadowed by the two-decade-old loss of his parents, seeks his place in the world. Each story, while distinct, converges on the shared themes of struggle, redemption, and the human spirit's resilience.
