Shell
Left by her mother during her childhood, Shell remains to look after her ailing father, yet she feels confined by the stunning yet barren scenery around her. Her life revolves around managing the crumbling gas station, tending to her father, and spending afternoons in her room with a nearby mechanic, as each truck that shakes her walls symbolizes time slipping away. One day, a traveling salesman stops for fuel and gives Shell a glimpse of the world beyond, bringing her closer than ever to the brink of the road and her longing to break free.
