Burrowed Frowns
As Ray walks alone in a foreign city a Fisherman’s words beg contemplation and a freer existence is glimpsed, but the mundane safety of a lie and a minimum wage triumph in the end.
Ray’s family in china sacrificed all for him to come to Sydney to find a better life. Yet years later Ray finds himself alone, broke and working illegally in the outer suburbs. Unable to find success in Sydney and unable to face his parents, we join Ray on an aimless walk of confusion. Ray gently observes a humble fisherman’s ideas on life from which he draws some strength. As he meanders on he begins to notice the absurd in the city and feel a strange freedom in his isolation. But the responsibility to his family and the need to make money drag him back into his routine of sad lonely nights baking.
