When nothing is simple and no one is free
A violent act shakes a city to its core. A young person is dead. In an interrogation room, people try to make sense of the incomprehensible through the testimonies of those left behind. Lives reflect against one another, truths collide, and an entire society seeps in. At the center: two mothers, each on opposite sides of the unimaginable.
Fear is a powerful and gripping drama about guilt, grief, and the truths we cling to — and those we refuse to see. Through unexpected twists and shifting perspectives, a complex picture emerges where nothing is simple and no one is free. A story about what happens when everything we believed in falls apart, forcing us to confront ourselves after the worst has already happened.
