"A widower struggling to contain an adder infestation on his farm takes his only daughter to university on the day she leaves home." Beginning with a farmer stamping on a nest of snake eggs in his field at dawn, this short film uses visual metaphor and folklore to explore the emotional complexity of a simple moment in a parent's life; a child leaving home. A moment made all the more powerful by the father's isolation and status as a widower.
