The house that bursts; the scene of the crime; the nucleus. A universe collapses on itself: all hell breaks loose.
“In my dream there’s a war going on. It’s Christmas time. I’m running and I’m carrying myself as a child. It’s dark in the tunnel and I’m heading towards the light, the daylight.”- Louise Bourque, from the film’s voice-over narration
