The story unfolds across pivotal moments in a couple’s life: a wedding, the purchase of a first home, and the brink of divorce. Each moment is marked by the same act—signing a piece of paper—yet each carries a profoundly different emotional consequence. This film values subtle performance, internal conflict, and visual storytelling over heavy dialogue.

A woman standing at the edge of an ending. Klara is emotionally layered—torn between love, memory, and acceptance. This role requires strong non-verbal performance, micro-expressions, and emotional vulnerability.
Clara’s husband. Controlled, guarded, and emotionally conflicted. Andrew hides pain beneath composure. The role demands subtle emotional shifts and an ability to convey inner conflict without overt dialogue.
Quiet, observant, and composed. Ethan’s presence is brief but pivotal. He carries emotional weight through silence and posture. This role is essential to the film’s twist.
Jay is a quiet, composed man who carries the weight of tradition, loyalty, and unspoken sacrifice. He is a close family friend to Clara and a trusted presence in the room during one of the most painful moments of her life. On the surface, Jay appears calm, grounded, even reassuring—but beneath that stillness is a man deeply familiar with emotional confinement.
