The Insurance Fairy
A whimsical mother transforms her crumbling childhood home into a vibrant fantasy playground for her young son. But when their fairytale existence collapses under her mounting debts, she secretly sets a gas leak to burn the house for insurance money—unaware her son is still hiding inside, believing it’s all part of the game. As the house becomes a ticking bomb, she must race against time to save him—torn between preserving his innocent illusion, or confronting the devastating truth
