In the glittering rot of Sodom, where opium blooms like dark flowers since time immemorial, Lot, a foreigner, threads his life through shadows―with his wife, daughters, and humanity at stake. Sodom is a modern inferno, devouring its own: Emalath, Bithya, Jachin, mere echoes in its relentless feast. Lot's solitary compassion fractures the city's void, his kindness is but a costly lamentation.
The Stain reimagines the biblical scape, a Levantine dreamscape where the known unravels―truth and humanity become questions, not answers.
