Nobody Noir

A child draws on the ground, imagining a man. He is a villain: a former pastor who has lost his church, left alone in a room where water and electricity have been cut off. On a summer night when he has decided to die, he leaves home with a knife tucked against his body and a garbage bag in his hand. But the city is overflowing with trash, and there is nowhere left to throw anything away. Wandering through the night alleys barefoot, he becomes entangled with strangers and encounters the child drawing on the ground. She tells him she is leaving on a trip with her parents that night and asks him to feed her fish at home. The man goes looking for the address she gives him.
