Synopsis
A pregnant woman stands at the center of a surreal, waterlogged world, filmed in cool, dreamlike images that make her seem both vulnerable and monumental. She caresses her belly while Andy Cairns watches from a distance, singing with an uneasy calm. As the imagery shifts between intimacy and disorientation, Cairns appears asleep in her lap. The camera steadily pulls back until the strange tableau is revealed to exist inside the body of a gigantic woman.
