- Synopsis
- In the heart of suburbia, Sarah and David wrestle with the crushing pain of infertility. Seeking solace, they embark on a project to renovate their neglected garden shed. As they immerse themselves in the restoration process, THE SHED INCREASINGLY BECOMES A SANCTUARY where they reconnect with each other and nature. Resulting in a deepening awareness of the climate crisis. The more they see what they learn about come to reality (not only around the world but also in their own neighbourhood), the more they feel compelled to take action to tackle the lack of leadership and the corporate greed. In a dramatic twist of events, they kidnap a prominent oil executive and confine him in their shed, hoping to draw attention to the urgent need for change. Amidst all this, SARAH UNEXPECTEDLY FALLS PREGNANT. Consumed with the euphoria and practicalities of impending parenthood, their focus shifts and the kidnapped executive seizes an opportunity to escape during a violent storm. However, his taste of freedom is short lived, as he meets his end beneath a falling tree branch - a poignant irony mirroring the environmental destruction he helped cause.
