A girl a boy a river
Paul Verrept / Jan Van Outryve
Once upon a time, a fish lived in a river. One day, he was caught, and found his way into the stomachs of a man, his wife and his son. That night, something strange happened between the man and the woman, and the son fell into a deep sleep. Many years later, a girl came across the son, and curled up next to him. When they awoke, they had no need of words - they simply went to the river, set off in a little boat and let the currents carry them wherever they would.
