The film is an escargotic exploration of the spaces lived and lost throughout the life of Mrs. Miko, who is quite old now. Her storied, shell-like mind structures have become intertwined with those of the filmmaker, who, within the proximity of their shared home, dreamily muses on her own moribund process of ageing. The animated sequences of this film trace through memory strata, uncovering some artefacts, as well as the imprints and the fractures that are left behind when memories disappear.
