The Seamstress

‘This is a guide on where to begin
This is a lesson in reclaiming your skin’

Once, women came from the sea to dance on land. They slipped from their seal-skins and danced beneath the moonlight. One night, a woman’s skin was taken.

And she could not return.

Rooted in an ancient story, The Seamstress follows a woman as she confronts the wilderness beyond her - and the wilderness within.
