Drama × Mystery Genre

  • Drama — endurance, and the weight of an ordinary life
  • Mystery — questioning, and the guilt behind the mystery

A life with a question at its centre. The mystery drives the story, but the answer matters for what it reveals about the people who have been living around it.
