A Kafkaesque odyssey across a dreamlike, universal landscapeAn unnamed adolescent drifter wanders through an unnamed country at an unspecified point in time in search of warmth and comfort. He finds it at a farm engaged in festivities but is immediately forced to flee the next morning after coveting the mysterious lady of the estate. Now a fugitive, the vagabond encounters and joins with another, a wry middle-aged man tasked with delivering a message sealed in a tube. The two pursue a dreamlike chain of clues and horror in their mission, encounteringas well as perpetratingcrime and cruelty, until the boys former aimlessness develops into an unexpected destiny.
