A darkly absurdist triptych that uses grotesque scenarios and moral ambiguity to interrogate agency, identity, and the nature of human connection.

A triptych fable following a man without choice who tries to take control of his own life; a policeman who is alarmed that his wife who was missing-at-sea has returned and seems a different person; and a woman determined to find a specific someone with a special ability, who is destined to become a prodigious spiritual leader.
