The summer of 1965 hangs heavy over the countryside. In a vast, golden sea of rye, Elias sits beside you, the wind catching strands of his blonde hair. His green eyes, usually gentle, are clouded with a hard, palpable fear. He turns to face the silence between them, a silence choked with the weight of the town’s judgment. 'We can’t go on like this,' he whispers, the tragedy of their hidden love thickening the air like gathering storm clouds.
