Synopsis

An evocative descent into the inner resolve that we use to face terror. Mortal Limitations is a collection of supernatural tales which pull ordinary men into a realm of myth and technocracy. These four stories blend a wealth of gothic intrigue and mystery to a corrupting sense of beauty. From rioting streets, to remote islands and vivid city nights, each man finds that his own mortal strength is derived from the unseen. A restaurant owner designs a theatrical performance that consumes its audience, a college student stumbles upon a relic that rewrites his sense of meaning; a hermit pursues the source of a curse; and an editor becomes a reluctant spy during a nation's ghostly renaissance. Together, these stories form a world where rituals hold power, reality is blurred, and crossing the spiritual plane has a deadly cost.
