Synopsis

Sandra, a middle-aged mother, has long devoted herself to her family, quietly setting aside parts of herself that once felt alive. When she inherits her late brother’s bicycle, an impulsive ride leads to an unexpected victory. This sudden recognition begins to unsettle the stillness of her carefully ordered life. As attention grows, the delicate balance within her marriage begins to shift. Long-suppressed dreams, disappointments, and silences between Sandra and her husband rise to the surface, unsettling the roles they have long taken for granted. Caught between the family and the pull of desire, Sandra is drawn into a disorienting second act, where change arrives uninvited, bringing both possibility and consequence for both husband, wife and family.
