Development
Caught in the monotonous confines of a suburban development, two teenagers find themselves entangled in a volatile romance that teeters precariously between flirtation and violence. Despite the destructive consequences it unleashes, their toxic relationship stubbornly persists, blurring the line between love and turmoil.
In the narrative of ‘Development,’ we bear witness to the critical juncture when the duo’s push-and-pull dynamic should have met its breaking point.
