The Bearing

From the marshy lands by the sea emanates a strange, disturbing story, lurking in the memory of a timeless storyteller. The story of a man and a woman expecting a child.

As she holds her newborn son in her arms, the young mother feels her heart leave her chest. From that moment on, she sinks into the meanders of a visceral love and gradually loses her humanity. She watches over her son like a wounded bear, while her husband watches helplessly as his wife is transformed.
