In the near future, a plastic bag goes on an epic journey in search of its lost maker, wondering if there is any point to life without her. The bag encounters strange creatures, brief love in the sky, a colony of prophetic torn bags on a fence, and the unknown. To be with its own kind, the bag travels into the Great Pacific garbage patch.
