A Mother’s child is stolen by
Death. The Mother madly pursues Death
in an attempt to save her child’s
life and in the process, encounters
several characters, Night, a Thorn
Bush, a Lake, an Old Woman at Death’s
Greenhouse and finally, Death himself.
She is made to surrender parts of
herself on her journey to the various
characters in order to find her child.
At the conclusion, a little more than
a shell of who she once was, The Mother
is made to realize it is not her choice
as to whether her child lives or dies.
She says "Let God's will be done."
As a result the child dies.
