Squid

When an aspiring composer, Dune, is mansplained by her boss in a seafood restaurant about the proper skills needed to cut up a squid – she leaves work with a feeling that only worsens as her boyfriend breaks up with her once and for all.

Fearing failure in all areas of life, Dune cycles to the beach only to be surprised by her findings.
