Bread

A struggling household headed by a music-teaching mother and her two daughters copes with chronic money shortages and the daily need to provide food. Narrative scenes track small domestic crises, errands, and exchanges with neighbors and shopkeepers, while tensions rise around pride, obligation, and survival. Through close attention to everyday detail and working-class interactions, the work examines class friction, ethical compromises within the family, and the social pressures that restrict opportunity and dignity. The tone remains realist and socially observant, shifting between intimate domestic moments and broader critiques of economic insecurity.
