A Messy Tribute to Motherly Love

A cheerful pregnant woman on holiday with her husband and child encounters violence that lead to her demise.

A brutal assault changes Marieke's life. She leaves her familiar city rhythms for the solitude of a isolated house in the countryside. Her irrational fears on the frozen farm are a constant struggle. As spring's orchestra begins, her curiosity for new things that cover the cold rot of winter pull her out of the suffocating interior of her mind. Slowly she accepts the help of John, her neighbour.

In the saliva-saturated Sputum world, an ugly class struggle is unfolding. The ruling Antique FAMLY depend on the saliva of the Bakelites to survive an invisible, buzzing, fungus cloud. With invasive, saliva milking machines and an addictive rot powder, their FAMLY enforces a status quo. But when the Bakelite rebellion led by Jimin Blyth gets help from aristocratic Antique deserter Kalta Crux, their future takes a new turn.
