A surreal short film that explores the search for meaning and self-expression in a world that has lost its own. Through an eccentric character and an absurd universe, the story offers a reflection on how creativity can be corrupted by ambition, and how the desire to leave a mark can ultimately destroy what is most essential: our origins, our intimacy, our humanity. Beneath its layer of extravagance, it is a satire that questions the cost of innovation when it becomes disconnected from its ethical and emotional roots.
