'Why the Sea Moans' is a re-imagined folk tale inspirired by the ancient Brazilian fairytale of the same name.
A lonely princess, Dionysia, has sat beside the ocean every day since childhood talking to her only friend - a sea monster, Labismena. Now almost grown up and facing a cruel arranged marriage, Dionysia turns to her friend for comfort, only to learn of the sea monster's curse. Labismena performs a kindness she can only hope Dionysia will return. Is their friendship as strong as the tides that bind Labismena to the ocean?
