An other-worldly story, set against the backdrop of Cold War era America circa 1962, where a mute janitor working at a lab falls in love with an amphibious man being held captive there and devises a plan to help him escape.
A lush, emerald-hued dreamscape transforms a sterile 1960s research facility into a place of silent longing and magic. This fairy tale for adults finds profound connection in the quiet spaces between spoken words.
