HOME THE STORY THE TEAM DONATE

Sophie wants to go to the Moon.

She's mapped out her life accordingly, ensuring that every step she takes leads her to this destination. But one night, although the clock reads 8pm, the Sun is still shining, as if it were noon.

With each passing day, the Sun remains directly overhead, as Sophie and the people around her grow happier and happier. Her past misery becomes elusive, while this inexplicable joy seduces her.

When her desire to go to the Moon begins to dissipate, and is replaced by an overwhelming contentment, Sophie is forced to ask herself:

If I don't want anything at all, then who am I?
