synopsis

Dawa is born into a primitive society of creatures who, unlike her, don't have identities or emotions. After she grows up in apathy, she ventures out to explore the limits of her world where she comes across a mysterious barrier accompanied by a colourful stranger.
Dawa is een meisje geboren in een primitieve gemeenschap van wezens die in tegenstelling tot haar niet beschikken over identiteit of emotie. Terwijl ze in apathie opgroeit tast ze de grenzen van haar wereld af waardoor ze, vergezeld door een kleurrijke vreemde, een mysterieuze barrière ontdekt.
