When a Horse Becomes the Last Hope
In a world divided by red lines, where surveillance cameras track every movement and people disappear without explanation, two siblings face an unthinkable abandonment. Their mother remains behind at an "art hotel" where she works, while her boyfriend Leif promises to return for her. But when mysterious red lines appear around their home and campervan, Leif abandons the children in an empty house with some tins of food and hollow promises. As the siblings watch him disappear down the street, they face a brutal truth: in this new world of arbitrary boundaries and vanishing adults, they have only each other. What happens when the structures of society collapse around you? When the adults who should protect you become unreliable or absent? This is the heart-wrenching reality these children navigate as they discover seven horses in a nearby field-particularly a gray one the sister names "Gliff." Little do they know this horse will become not just a friend but their salvation in a world increasingly hostile to freedom and authenticity.
