In a nondescript building nestled in a gentrifying corner of London, Penny grapples with a relentless battle within her mind. Convinced that the world beyond her door poses an imminent danger, her heart, however, whispers a different truth.
Penny's neighbor, Carla, an American expat and single mother of two teenage children, has endured a coercive relationship for countless years, exhausted by her controlling husband's dominance. Mable, Penny's upstairs neighbor, an elderly Jamaican pensioner and devout Jehovah's Witness, has sacrificed her entire life for her faith, severing ties with her family. And Woman, the housekeeper and nanny on the second floor, has been subjected to human trafficking.
When she is not engaged in cleaning and cooking, she works in the laundrette, a hidden slave in plain sight of the public. Through grocery deliveries, glimpses through windows, and overheard conversations in the stairwell, the women gradually acquaint themselves.
Their modest acts of compassion serve as catalysts, guiding them toward mending the fractured paths in their lives.
