If one were to break down the story line itself down to its very essence, I feel the underlying question, some might even say, burning question would be - IS there more to death than one thinks? Is it possible that what we call life is blended together with death itself and is what we perceive as "Being alive" merely a different way of existence until one has experienced both sides in its multi-faceted layers?
When one experiences another side to these layers, is any of these layers less real than the one you think you're in?...
