Money is printed faster than bread can be baked, and hunger gnaws at every family. Through the eyes of a shopkeeper’s daughter, we see a city unravel: fathers wheeling wheelbarrows of banknotes, mothers bartering heirlooms for potatoes, musicians playing in the streets for scraps. When she falls in love with a young violinist, their fragile romance collides with the brutal choices poverty demands—survival, sacrifice, or surrender.
