The Crabian Heart: A Synopsis

Irena and her thirteen-year-old son Ale? are refugees living in a lonely seaside town of Dover, England. Ale? has never seen an ocean, let alone one that glows purple when he's nearby. On a local beach, he befriends the ostensible Mother of Crabs, an amputee with rigid demeanour and unequivocal warnings. Soon, purple crustaceans crawl behind his every step and women with pincers threaten to recondition his sensitive heart.
