Concepts of intimacy and home have a strong relation because they are sharing that “private”world which is normally revealed to the people who are closest to us in our life. But what does actually happen when everyone is forced to cut out all the social contacts and your house is the only place where you can go? How you do I react to fear, psychological stress and isolation?
