An aspiring clown grappling with her gender identity combats a fascistic caped crusader.

Scenes of the life of an alien hiding behind a cat mask. A chaser stalks his fetish. A queen flaunts her beauty. The media swarm the thoughtwaves. A well-meaning girl seeks connection. Anger hides under the surface. And all the while, a mysterious voice from another place and time is calling out...

A lonely naiad discovers a crying human child at the edge of their pond and tries to cheer him up. They soon discover they have more in common than meets the eye.

In a town where everyone is initiated into clownhood at eighteen, Mimi is forced to choose between the life she’s always known or a new one afar from home.
