An oligarch finances the first underwater colony. He dives with a team to approve the project, and check the current state of our relationships with the Ocean. A force coming from the abyss resists. Dialogue ensues.

The opera is built around extended vocal techniques and composition strategies that offer a strong platform for improvisation, between abstraction and melody. It aims at showcasing the high levels of intensity these rare interprets can offer on an opera stage.
