Sometimes the things we embrace tear us apart.
'Why do we remain loyal to that which tears us apart?' Cleave is a story of a married couple, Aidan and Nadia. They have 2 children, the typical Americana life and small-town home. Life under the surface is not what it appears to be. Happiness is elusive but fear of change is stronger. Both of them stay in this toxic relationship; both of them fantasize of a 'different life', but what they truly want and what they truly do never seem to connect outside of their fantasies.
