Fifteen years ago, Nora slammed the door behind her—leaving her husband, her children, and the life she had known. As for the reason she left, perhaps it was because she realized her husband could never truly see her, or maybe it was because the role of a "housewife" was suffocating her. She couldn’t quite name it, but there was a voice growing louder inside her, urging her to walk away.
Today, fifteen years later, Nora has become a completely different person: she is wealthy, free, happy, and carefree. Her former life as a "puppet" of a housewife feels like a distant memory. It’s a lifestyle that women in the 19th century could hardly have imagined. But now, she suddenly returns. This return is not without its trials—she must confront unresolved emotions and prepare for the difficult conversations yet to be had: with her husband, her daughter, and the nanny who bore witness to it all. She has no reason to return, unless the strings that once held her haven’t been completely severed...
15年前,娜拉砰地一声关上家门,抛下丈夫和三个孩子,踏上寻找自我的旅程。要说离开的原因,或许是她意识到丈夫无法真正的看见她,又或许是“全职主妇”的角色令她感到窒息。她说不清,只知道心底有一个声音越来越大,这个声音要她离开。
15年后的今天,娜拉已然成为了一个完全不同的人:她富足自由,快乐潇洒,作为家庭主妇“提线玩偶”般的日子恍若隔世。这是一种19世纪的女人不敢想象的生活。可她突然回来了。这次回归,无疑意味着面对一个又一个没有处理完成的心结,与一场又一场艰难的对话:与丈夫,与女儿,与见证了所有过去的保姆。她没有理由回来,除非她身上的提线并没完全剪断……
