The Banishment

Alex takes his wife Vera and their two children to a remote countryside house. The quiet setting initially suggests a retreat from urban life, but an unspoken strain lingers between the couple. Soon after arriving, Vera reveals a shocking truth: she is pregnant, and the child is not Alex's. This confession triggers a chain of emotional and moral conflict. Alex, withdrawn and unable to process the revelation, responds with cold detachment rather than open confrontation. As silence and misunderstanding deepen, Vera becomes increasingly isolated and desperate.
