Alice falls into a musical box and begins a journey through impossible spaces in which she will have to transform and adapt to find her way back to the real world. Throughout this paradoxical journey she meets creatures that show her different ways of moving. On her journey through the labyrinth, Alice and the creatures recognize and reconfigure themselves, sometimes being one, sometimes being many, until they find the reason for their journey.
