Anna Hallman: 3-näytöksinen perhekuvaus

A middle‑class household confronts faded prosperity, private ambitions, and domestic anxieties as an elderly former industrialist works in secret on a machine that might restore the family fortune. His wife, their daughter, and a devoted long‑time servant navigate unpaid wages, shopping worries, and the social pressures around the daughter’s engagement to a local apothecary. Concerns about a younger relative’s reckless affairs and debts intensify tensions, while secrecy, pride, and hope shape everyday interactions. Intimate domestic scenes and escalating confrontations expose conflicting loyalties and differing ideas about honor, security, and the possibility of personal and financial restoration.
