About
A comic, dreamlike fairy tale about a king who is afraid of everything, most of all the elephants he says are coming. To keep them out, he invents strange rules, puts up odd signs and confiscates everyone's apples. Everyone obeys except Samar, who won't let herself be scared. It's funny first, and it asks what happens when one person refuses to be led by fear.
