A spotless and dimly lit bathroom, modern and very white.
White towels are perfectly lined up on the rack, soaps and feminine bathroom items carefully organized on shelves and around the bathtub. The white ceramics reflect the clear water that fills the tub.
The only sound is a slow, hollow, regular drip that breaks the stillness, distorting the bath water. The ripples gradually subside and the water becomes still once again before another drop hits the surface.
Hannah is sitting on the closed toilet seat, dressed in a white terrycloth bathrobe, her knees to her chin. Her gaze is fixed on the water, specifically each drop as it hits the tub, focused on the tiny ripples extending outward.
The muffled sound of water splashing hard is heard…
An older bathroom.
In a full bathtub, a woman adult hand holds down a much younger Hannah, 10 years old, under water, her pretty dress now soiled by the dirty water in the bath. The splashing continues even harder on the rigid arm holding Hannah as she fights for her life.
