atonement lurks in the shadow of your mind
Henry, a man with dissociative identity disorder, frantically gathers belongings, desperate to escape his past. In his child’s home, he confronts his identities: Joana, the composed one, refuses to let him go; Millie, a terrified child, recoils from him; and Lucas, aggressive and mocking, reveals dark truths. As sirens approach, Henry flees to the basement, only to find his true self Alex chained, battered, and screaming about their crimes. Flashbacks of murder flood Henry’s mind. As he tries to escape, Alex slits his wrists, calling Henry’s name. Overcome with dread, they die together, trapped by their fractured, inescapable past.
