Synopsis

This collection of seven stories reimagines classic fairy tales, folklore, and ballads for the modern world. In one tale, an aging billionaire sends his three sons on absurd quests to determine who will inherit his fortune. In another, a house-sitter finds that the remote home he is watching serves as a gateway for strange, otherworldly travelers. These narratives blend the ordinary details of daily life with surreal, unexpected magic.
