Marriages are complicated business, and those with a couple of years behind them, perhaps more so. The short film explores the same reality and engages with ideas of fidelity, companionship and love in the process. <br><br> An atmosphere of unease is conjured within the first few moments of the film, ensuring the viewer that perhaps something darker than what they would have expected at the first glance from the story of this seemingly average looking household, awaits them. As the plot progresses to reveal all the murkiness that lurks within, it also weaves in poetry to concisely and lucidly communicate its intention to the audience. After all, is everything truly fair in love (and a domestic reality of long-term marital bonds)?

The film is a glimpse into a man's life while choosing to confine itself to the same, fixed location - a bath. As he enjoys himself with a drink in one hand and a book in the other, the same activity comes to take more jaded forms with the passage of time. <br><br> It's through the devolution of what had once been an enjoyable activity that the narrative puts forth its engagement with the lockdown following the coronavirus pandemic and the manner in which it has come to affect people's lives.
