Schwamme Jr., a perfectionist inventor, lives in sterile isolation, haunted by his father’s legacy as the creator of the sponge. When a construction crew arrives to relocate his house, his obsessive order collides with outside chaos, triggering a surreal chain of events that forces him to confront the futility of control.
