Synopsis

As Elise settles into a new apartment with her parents, her beloved cat Roger mysteriously transforms into a goldfish. Shaken and desperate, she retraces her past, returning to her childhood home in search of a way to bring him back — a journey where memory and magic blur in her longing for what she’s lost.
