About: KNOCK OF JANUS
A short abstract story exploring change and menopause. Vicky lives alone disconnected from herself facing life transitions. She hears strange knocks on her door at night, the first knock on her 50th birthday! Who is knocking?

A year later she falls deeper into despair and fear. The knocks return, louder each time, until Vicky challenges the persecutor, she opens the door. Will this be her turning point or her disastrous end?
