On the remote island of Man-Jae, Korea, three elderly women spend their dying days free diving into the ocean to harvest seafood. These haenyeossea womenare the last practitioners of their millennium-old tradition. On the island of Manhattan, a Korean-Canadian playwright navigates external expectations of how her own identity intersects with the stories she tells. In a magical reflection of the interplay between narrative and identity, this whimsical satire humorously reveals how the stories we tell can obscure entire peoples, and asks: how we are to remove ourselves from an entrapping culture while we simultaneously perpetuate it for our own self-interest?
