Longs’ Mansion was built to out-last his history. Instead, it became the mausoleum of inherited privilege.
Silent, secretive, and distant, it stood solid against the baggage of an era gone by. The halls inviolate, anyone who dared intrude into its private world would incur the slow wrath of the watchful stony walls.
In a nation reshaping itself after the empire, Zira, from the dark forests of Kalahandi, enters the magnificent estate as its last mistress. She is seduced by its colonial splendour, blind to the present rot beneath.
Obsessed with British pageantry, the family were prisoners of a vanished empire.
Desire, repression and ancestral cruelty rule their days. Sparkling and rebellious, Zira’s presence shatters the unspoken control of the mansion. She challenges its fragile order as she reopens the locked rooms, and histories re-surface.
Yet, Zira cannot escape the destiny they dictate. Her longing, defiance, and gradual doom mirror a class crumbling under the weight of lost power. As the mansion feeds on memory and repression, love mutates into possession; beauty into violence, and tradition into something predatory.
Longs’ estate does not forgive. It consumes.
