How do the family members cope with dwindling resources?

Coping & Survival Strategies

1. Indoor farming The family pulls up the wooden floorboards to start a makeshift garden inside their home to grow vegetables and seeds.

2. Learning survival skills The parents teach their kids practical skills, like Jason showing them how to gut a fish (with some surreal props included), to make the most of what they’ve got.

3. Making the house itself evolve Their home deteriorates with time—appliances, items, and rooms age and wear—forcing them to adapt not just physically but psychologically to the changing environment.

4. Routines and emotional resilience They lean heavily on family bonds—love, humor, conflict—all surfacing under pressure as they contend with fear, uncertainty, and the creep of desperation.
