One day, Alice, a neurotic Kindergarten teacher, discovers mushrooms growing on her skin. Her doctor is unhelpful and while her elderly neighbour tries to support her, Alice is unwilling to accept her advice. But as the fungi spread across her skin, Alice’s self-hatred grows, and her life becomes increasingly miserable. She would do anything to get rid of the infection. The mushrooms are turning Alice into a monster. But since when is that a bad thing?
