Welfare

In a tense, intimate drama, a young social worker navigates a fragmented city and a maze of bureaucratic hurdles to help a troubled family cling to hope. As an unstable economy tightens the squeeze on already vulnerable households, personal loyalties collide with professional duty, forcing difficult choices that test boundaries and trust. Amid late-night shifts, crowded offices, and the echo of distant sirens, the protagonist must reconcile their own trauma with the weight of countless stories left unspoken. A quiet, human-centered journey explores resilience, community, and the unglamorous realities of care in a system under pressure.
