Lethe is stuck on a desert island, with no recollection of how he got there. His only hope of salvation is to fish memories that float in the sea and, with them, regain his identity and try to escape. An allegory of those who suffer their last days with Alzheimer’s disease.
This is a journey on what it is to be human, what it means to have lived a life, and what it means to watch both slip away. This is the type of art that connects us not with a hammer or a catchphrase, but with a soft-spoken word and an open heart. This is a journey that you owe to yourself to take, to live here for but a scant number of pages while the team’s work plucks at you. Everyone will take this path differently, but it is one guided by masters. They feel this deeply and have conveyed that depth to the page for us to plumb with them.
