When you look into your mothers eyes, you know that this is the purest love you could find on this earth.

This is not Mia's reality. In her world, a mothers love is weaponized - used as a reward and taken away as punishment. It's a world where the person who is supposed to keep her safe from harm is the one causing it. 

Mia's culture dictates that it is her responsibility as the child to love her mother unconditionally... except, isn't it supposed to be the other way around?

This is where we open Anak.
