Inspired by a real murder case and a childhood song, it is a haunting, movement-driven story about grief, madness, and the things we cannot release.
A woman drags a dead fish from the sea and becomes cursed, speaking in gibberish and clutching the rot. The town calls her mad. Then one day, she calls a funeral, not for a person, but for the fish. As she sings in the funeral, the crowd sways, mourns together, and buries the fish by the sea. In shared delirium, they all become like her: broken, bound, and strangely free.
