If love is forever, why does it feel so lonely?

Lola, a woman consumed by loneliness after losing everyone in her life, finds solace in reliving Christmas morning every day with her mannequin son, Leo. Trapped in a cycle of nostalgia and grief, Lola clings to the illusion of a perfect family moment, even as reality slips further away.
