Maggie May

Sam’s sister Maggie May has always been different. So after the death of their mother, she takes her twin babies to spend the weekend, and help her out. But Maggie isn’t interested in being helped. She isn’t interested in anything.

The hours go by and soon the smell of blood fills the air, and the sound of babies crying can’t be escaped. But look at Maggie. Can you blame her? So much pain around her but is it really her fault?

She didn’t do anything.
