Strung follows Albert, a dutiful academic whose life is dictated by unseen strings. Though outwardly composed, he secretly yearns to create, a passion long suppressed by expectation and obligation. The invisible hand that guides his every move embodies parental control, love entwined with restraint. Trapped within a grand mansion that mirrors his confinement, Albert’s breaking of the strings becomes an act of self-realization. When he discovers the strings lead to his mother’s hand, he understands both her love and its weight. In the light of the setting sun, Albert chooses freedom and walk his own path at last.
