In a vast and arid dystopian landscape of the future, covered in plastic waste, one man struggles to survive with his wife and dog. He scavenges a living in his world and they barely manage to survive. The only source of daylight comes pouring through a hole in the leaden sky which mountains of waste seem to lead up to and to the man this is a place of escape. One day he brings a fish home that he has scrounged from a plastic choked stream and after they feast on it, the dog dies, turning into plastic. His wife too displays the same symptoms.
