The Man Chasing Ducks

A lone man crosses a desolate wasteland, burdened by a strange bathtub on his back. When he stumbles upon a quiet lake, the ducks swimming within spark a near-mad chase. But this isn’t just about catching ducks—everything, from the wasteland to the bathtub and the lake, hints at a deeper mystery. What is he truly chasing? As the truth unravels, fate takes an unexpected turn.
