Episode 1
The main character is a stand-up comedian.
But his career was slow to pick up. One day, someone told him, fuck polities. Don't talk about those deep digestions, nobody cares. Talk about things that resonate with everyone.
So Samir began to tell some stories about himself, his dog, his nephew. But behind every laughter from the audience, those people and things disappeared.
Success always comes with sacrifice, how ironic. When life becomes a joke on the stage, then these lives no longer exist, and it really becomes a made-up story. In the end, Samir reflected on his own choice when sacrificing his pets, friends and even his lover. If the greatest success comes with absolute loss and loneliness, what would you choose?
