Backwater is doomed by the regular visits of the undertaker and its dwellers blame a tramp.
Backwater is doomed by the regular visits of the undertaker. The town priest and the faithful think that a merry non-religious tramp brings the death that follows living in an improvised shed in the middle of the town. It looks like when he sings the undertaker visits. But is he the one to blame for their misfortune?

The pacing is a bit slow, but a good addition to the genre.
