'To mother is to murder, or close enough', thinks Johanna, as she
looks at the spelling of the two words in Norwegian. She's recently
widowed and back in Oslo after a long absence as she prepares for a
retrospective of her art. The subject of her work is motherhood and
some of her more controversial paintings have brought about a
dramatic rift between parent and child. This new proximity, after
decades of acrimonious absence, set both women on edge, and before
too long Johanna finds her mother stalking her thoughts, and
Johanna starts stalking her mother's house.
