As she struggles to reconcile her turbulent childhood with the façade of her successful career, Ella's paintings begin to distort, warping with the weight of her unspoken truths. Forced to confront the lies that have shaped her identity, Ella must decide whether to expose the darkness of her past or succumb to its consuming power.
