Logline: 

You are what you eat. In a world where people start to look like the thing they eat the most of, you can take this quite literally. When a newcomer arrives, the visible consequences turn the world upside down.

Director Statement: : 

One of the main differences between humans and animals is that humans could control their desires. Those who cannot control their desire well, are just like the characters in the film, their bodies grow fish tail, pig nose, as well as chicken beak. In another word, they are "animalized". And the worst "animalization" also happens inside these people's minds, which leads the story to its ending. The terrible thing about desire is not that it is hard to detect. On the contrary, even when we are well aware of its dangers, we still dive into it most. We may want to change at some point, but it's just as easy to fall back into the same cycle.
