Reconciling The Wayward Cloud (NSFW)

A young man climbs on to the roof of a high-rise and carefully sneaks into a water tower. He soaps up and lazily floats in the water letting the bubbly foam slowly float away. He turns into a half-man half-fish with pearlescent, sequin scales. He raises his head out of the water and sings a sweet but maudlin song about a love who is far away. The scene finishes and we cut to a woman’s apartment below. A soap bubble plops out of the sink faucet followed by a few more and together they float into a sleeping woman’s bedroom and silently pop out of existence.
