The Sunken Land Rises Again

All of Shaw’s life is an awkward attempt to understand who he is. A rented room, a mother with dementia, and rare encounters with a woman named Victoria—this is a semblance of life, or it would be life if Shaw hadn’t gotten entangled in a conspiracy theory that, in dark nights by the river, seems to grow less and less “theoretical”… Victoria repairs the house of his deceased mother, trying to find new friends. But what happened to her mother? Why did the local waitress disappear into a small pond? And why is the city so obsessed with the old Victorian fairy tale “The Children of Water”? While Shaw and Victoria try to keep their relationship, the sunken lands rise again, unnoticed behind the shadows of existence.
