FAR FROM THE CASTLE, DE JULIA JANSCH a
On drought-ridden Southernmost tip of Africa, Eliza taps into her divine heritage to search for water. A mile away, the roaming Rotterdams have recently arrived in the region, only to set off again in search of a solution to the dwindling water reserves on the farm. They leave their only son, Maddox, behind. Now alone and free to preoccupy himself with his own time and ghastly imagination, Maddox stumbles upon Eliza searching for fresh water. She might just be the one to quench his thirst. Far from the Castle is a psycho-sexual fable warning us that while water owes nothing to nobody, it still speaks louder than words.

Shes been beaten down by life and is having a rough go at it when she decides to quit her sign spinning job and walk home. On the way, she comes across Dinosaur a shy sign spinner who has been dealing with his own issues and uses the persona of an apex predator to compensate for the powerlessness that he feels in life. As Shark and Dinosaur get to know each other over the course of a walk to the park, they make a connection that allows them to slowly let their guard down and be vulnerable - something that scares them both very much. And when their guard goes down and their costumes come off, will they like what they see?
