Mary (2017)

The story is about two neighbours. The protagonist Mary, and the antagonists, Hansie and Luna. Mary suffers from breast cancer. Hansie and Luna struggles with drug addiction. For years Mary has seen Hansie getting more and more violent and abusive towards his dog. She has tried to intervene several times, which has caused a conflict between the two neighbours. One day when Hansie and Luna are desperate for “medicine” to calm their withdrawal symptoms, Hansie figures that Mary might have morphine because of her cancer treatment. His suspicion causes them to start plotting against Mary and it all builds up to a point of confrontation. All of a sudden Mary finds herself in a conflict she can’t escape.
