Part 2/10:
As civilization crumbles, the stakes for survival have climbed drastically. Food shortages exacerbate the tension; vegetables, once staples, have become rarities. When Jim arrives home bearing an orange—a symbol of hope—his family's excitement exposes a fragile and desperate existence. Compounding their plight is the tyrannical government that enforces strict population control, restricting families to two children. This regulation leads Elizabeth, Jim's wife, to mask the existence of their youngest daughter, Zoe, hiding her away to avoid persecution for simply existing.
