Synopsis

A rainy morning is interrupted by the radio. A horse's voice transports the daily commute in Los Santos, San Andreas, to a remote broadcasting station in an unspecified location. He’s written a novel reflecting on the past. An ancestral memory. Movement and time become uncertain; we traverse abandoned histories through valleys and train tracks. Among the spoor is a longing for connection, a lost sense of value, a desire to be stolen.
