- Summary
- A beautiful, yet disturbing, tale of two people traveling into the Sahara. Although the couple apear to be smart, independent travelers, they are not equipped to travel into the desert.

The shifting sands and unforgiving sun are metaphors for the shocking and vulgar circumstances that befall them
