Plot Summary |
In this small blue planet called Earth, its weird inhabitants live and die for one principal reason: to kill. As a result, behind humanity's repugnant hypocrisy, death, destruction, wickedness, fatal societal contradictions and moral absurdity are hidden in plain sight; man seems to be inextricably linked with violence, trapped in a vicious cycle of blood and war. And in between, the amorphous boundless void of dead time.
