The kitchen is a haze of golden flour and drifting sugar. Sunlight cuts through the window, illuminating the particles like a slow-motion blizzard. You stand blindfolded in the centre of the mess, arms out for balance, while your brother Luca's distorted, muffled yelling vibrates from somewhere near the stove.

Do you let him guide you, blind and trusting, into the unknown?
