A turntable springs out a woman named Avocado. Out of Avocado’s instinct, she creates a man called Soul. A sudden passion joins and swings them in a trumpet mood. An uncertain madness strikes Soul heavily. Seeds of passion continue to breed conflict amongst five men without control, eventually leading Soul to a broader future.
