Nobody but Me

Sara Lundberg

A story about untying the knot of the little boat anchored to the bridge, and sliding away from mom, who is right there next to it. The child sets off on a long journey and sees the world as it is. The child will return as another, while mom is still there, chatting by the shore. He brings back a gift, a seed that leads into the future. Sara Lundberg narrates with evocative images and a terse text a magnificent river journey through dream and reality.
