Ruins

At a turning point in their lives, Emma and Julian arrive in Athens to house-sit for a friend, hoping a summer abroad will bring clarity—and perhaps repair the quiet unraveling of their relationship. Emma is yearning for something more than work or the question of starting a family, while Julian is still reeling from the collapse of his academic ambitions. Their futures no longer seem aligned, and the distance between them is growing.

Then they meet Lena—an alluring, elusive young Greek woman whose presence sparks something unexpected. Drawn into her orbit, Emma and Julian begin to test the boundaries of their relationship in bold and unsettling ways. But as the city swelters under the relentless heat, what began as a liberating detour becomes a tense entanglement. The lines between desire, power, and manipulation blur, and the trio soon finds themselves in a dangerous game with consequences neither anticipated nor fully understands.
