Where Silence Lives

When Anja refuses to disappear quietly, a small town begins to close its ranks.

Set in the understated streets of Altentreptow, Where Silence Lives follows a woman who rejects the comfort of safety when it demands her compliance. Anja is drawn into a web of quiet power: institutional pressure disguised as care, intimacy that threatens to become control, and desire that offers relief at a dangerous price.

Between Matthias, whose love is real but not harmless, and Daniel K, who understands her too precisely to be trusted, Anja must decide what kind of closeness she will allow—and what she is willing to lose to remain herself.

This is a dark romance without rescue, where erotic tension, emotional risk, and psychological power collide. Nothing is forced. Nothing is forgiven too easily. Silence becomes a space where choices are made—and where consequences remain.
