🎬 The Ground Beneath My Feet

Lola is a ruthless workaholic business consultant who meticulously manages her high-powered career and secretly maintains a clandestine romantic relationship with her female boss, Elise. Her hyper-controlled life begins to unravel when her older sister, Conny, who suffers from severe schizophrenia, survives a suicide attempt and demands Lola's constant attention. As Lola balances grueling corporate restructuring projects with family crises, the boundary between her professional discipline and psychological paranoia blurs, forcing her to confront long-buried trauma and identity in this intense independent queer cinema production.
