Tulip

Central Asia 1880s. A field botanist stumbles across the rarest of tulip flowers growing in a shamans garden. Shes willing to sell him a bundle of tulip bulbs but first he must eat one then make love to her (the side effects are useful but otherworldly). After arriving in Holland the valuable bundle goes missing. Convinced a poor crippled dock worker is the thief the botanist goes in hot pursuit. But when he fails to return his son asks the local Constable to investigate. When the Constable meets up with the dock workers wife and the couples teenaged daughter a curse is unleased and the seven people collide in the most intimate and heart-wrenching of ways.
