A disorienting, ritualistic descent into bureaucratic uncanny, where identity dissolves in endless, flamboyant loops.

Overview: Lost Property follows three characters returning to the Bureau of Lost Property—a labyrinthine sorting facility where each searches for a missing doppelganger. The Bureau’s flamboyant personnel enforce elaborate administrative rituals, guiding the protagonists toward destabilising confrontations with their other halves. Only one half of each pair can exit, locking them in an endless rotation between original and double.
