'MOTHER, FATHER and CHILD live their lives the way lives are lived until one day CHILD lies down on his stomach like a starfish and refuses to get up. The parents call for help, which comes in the form of a room with a one-way mirror. On the other side of the mirror is VOICE, who instructs the family, via in-ear microphone, on how to exist.'
