A reclusive man obsessed with his mother, at home in his apartment. Every day his mother has a steaming box of thirty meatballs delivered to him by courier. His universe begins to implode when the delivery man is replaced by a delivery woman, when an unlikely romance springs up between them, when the flavor of the meatballs changes, and when he realizes that his shadow has grown to extreme proportions.
A quantum fable about our elementary meatballs.
