Long ago, a lone carpenter from a small town in Tuscany carved a puppet doll out of a pine log. Thus begins the world-famous story of the adventures of a wooden boy."Swallowed" is a new look at the old fairy tale, but this time through the eyes of Giuseppe, a father who went in search of a wayward wooden offspring and for several years caught in the stomach of a giant fish. There, consumed by guilt, he contemplates fatherhood, mistakes, and loss, waiting for the day when he can be reunited with the son he himself once pushed away.
