SYNOPSIS

Amid a sudden, city-wide blackout, whispers ripple through the neighborhood—some say it’s the beginning of a war. As panic spreads, one resident, Liu, has a very different mission: to keep alive the fish he just bought earlier that day. But this isn’t just any fish—"he" talks. On this surreal night, Liu sets out through the chaos, accompanied by a proud, trash-talking fish, searching not only for survival, but for the fragile possibility of understanding between species, and perhaps, between souls.
