A darkly surreal, visually sumptuous fairy tale that weaves three interconnected stories of desire and obsession into a meditation on the corrupting nature of want.

The Queen of Selvascura risks everything to be a mother; the King of Roccaforte falls in love with the voice of a mysterious girl; the King of Altomonte becomes obsessed with a flea and neglects his daughter.
