A deeply strange, introspective experimental film that uses surreal imagery and a protagonist with Down syndrome to explore themes of identity, prejudice, and the search for meaning.

The adventures of a young man whose principle interests are snails, salt, a pipe, and how to get home. As tormented by a hubristic, racist inner psyche.
