1. The Labrynth
A grieving mother relocates to a coastal town to be near her imprisoned son and, driven by guilt and longing, resolves to build a stone labyrinth as a form of meditation and atonement. As she studies ancient designs and enlists the help of a reclusive stonemason, the project draws her into the rhythms of place and community, confronting past mistakes and fragile hopes. Through the slow work of making, she edges toward solace, responsibility, and the possibility of redemption.
