Swimming to Sea

Once a free fish in the ocean, the ‘Mackerel’ was caught by a fishing net and brought to the fish tank in a seafood restaurant. Since her arrival, she searches for a way out intentionally and relentlessly. Skeptic pessimist ‘Old-flatfish’ is also from the ocean, unlike the other fish in the tank that were raised in a fish farm. As the longest survivor in the tank, he reigns over other fish with his knowledge of survival. To him, Mackerel’s protest against him to escape from the tank is a threat to his regime.
