Mirror

During class, Ann enters the studio to correct Claire’s posture, embarrassing her in front of her classmates. Seeing other parents’ reactions in the mirror, Claire gathers the courage to ask her mother not to enter her classes again, but Ann dismisses her concerns. Their disagreement escalates into an argument, and Ann is deeply hurt by Claire’s words. Although Ann comes to the open class, she stays outside, while Claire searches for her. Ann eventually decides to let go, but Claire mistakes it for her mother giving up on her. Claire opens her mirror again, and the night falls into silence.
