In a confined space where authority, ambition, and fear collide, each character justifies their choices in the name of survival. What emerges is not a battle between right and wrong, but a portrait of how easily good intentions can bend under pressure.

Dining Review

  • The Lunar New Year (also called Chinese New Year) is upon us and generally falls between January 21 and February 20. This year, it falls on February 17. It is celebrated throughout China, Taiwan, North and South Korea, Singapore, Japan, the Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam. The holiday honors ancestors and deities, encourages letting go of negative energy, and emphasizes connecting with family and friends. It is a prominent celebration in vibrant Chinatowns and Asian communities across the country, featuring parades and other festive activities. This year marks the Year of the Horse, symbolizing hard work, bravery, and resilience—values universal to all. Food plays a significant role in Lunar New Year celebrations, with various culinary traditions across regions each assigning specific meanings to different dishes. Long Island offers many restaurants to enjoy these celebrations and discover new favorites. Culinary Delights for the Lunar New Year 2026: Year of the Horse

As someone passionate about food, my main focus is on choosing healthier options and making sustainable choices that I can maintain—at least for a while. The South Shore of Long Island boasts several top-quality health food markets and grocery stores that can make this easier. From fully prepared meals to the ingredients needed to make them, it’s a perfect time to visit some of our local stores and get inspired for the new year. Resolving to Eat Healthy in 2026
