“Fjord” is Beautifully Indecipherable
Fjord, like its story, is not a conclusion, but a beginning.
Laputa
What to do with life on an island threatened with rescue? Johanka is the owner of a café called Laputa, which—like the flying island of the same name from Gulliver's Travels—is her island. Will it be enough to make her feel complete and happy? Johanka explores what to do in the boundless space of adult life, at the beginning of which she finds herself. Her family is not very helpful, and the café guests each come with their own needs and selfishness—their characters are meant to be a reflection of their generation.
