Synopsis: In a house on a hill under a looming storm cloud, family life unfolds in breakneck pace. The crises, joys and random accidents of the day-to-day happen in a shattering blur. But amid the constant change, certain instants unspool slowly. Time flies, yet our memories are elastic, stretching moments, compressing years. A girl's blowing out six candles on a birthday cake takes a minute, but she moves out in a blink of an eye.
