The act of knowing you shouldn’t be doing something but doing it anyway.

It’s the one-year anniversary of Reuben’s mother’s death. He hosts an art exhibition titled Rou Moeder. A tribute, or rather a final goodbye, with his mother right at the centre of it all. Until she isn’t. The exhibition gets twisted into an evening with a strange young woman, a vienna sausage, and a mother that isn’t ready to move on just yet. A heart that aches, tends to dance with disaster: grief likes to be served raw, after all.
