Marrying the son of a wealthy village landlord seems to be a dream come true for a young day laborer. However, marriage to a man burdened with a shameful secret in the village where he lives, making him a hostage to his sickly traditional and devout mother and a ruthless but charming father, will be a trap of lies, dark lust, traditionalism, and deviant piety for the laborer. When she realizes she was chosen only to complete their picture of a "holy family," the situation spirals out of control, and the image turns into a mockery.
