There she searches for a mythical fish, samples the local cuisine, and explores on her own— losing her geographical and emotional bearings in the process. “A brilliant mix of black comedy, travelogue, drama, and an adventure-imbued mockery of showbiz, To the Ends of the Earth is a young woman’s journey from displacement to a place of self-discovery.” –KimStim.
