Unknown is a haunting story about one act of violence and the many truths it leaves behind.
In a quiet school corridor, a student kills her teacher. Or perhaps the teacher slipped. Or perhaps nothing is ever that simple. Through shifting voices-I, you, she-the story unravels into fractured versions of the same moment, each revealing another layer of memory, guilt, and forbidden love.
Recurring symbols-a brass apple on the desk, a crooked frame on the wall, a red arrow on a map insisting You are here-turn ordinary objects into evidence. Each telling reinterprets them, showing how reality bends under the weight of perspective.
At once intimate and unsettling, Unknown explores the fragile line between authority and desire, humiliation and rebellion, mercy and violence. It asks whether truth is ever fixed, or if every story, once told, becomes something else.
