Part 7/12:
Linda, Julia’s sister, is also caught in the web of love, disappointment, and societal expectations. Her feelings of jealousy and longing emerge as she grapples with her unfulfilled love for Johnny, and her desire to step out from her sister’s shadow. The underlying tensions show the characters’ internal struggles: longing for love, freedom, and self-identity.
The Party and the Turning Point
The scene shifts to a grand, lively New Year’s Eve party filled with music, dancing, and social chatter. Among the guests are family members, friends, and comedy figures like Satan, whose humorous speeches and antics contrast sharply with the more serious romantic struggles. The party is a microcosm of societal expectations, wealth, and superficial happiness.
