A quiet seaside meal, a grilled fish, and then a 36-hour waking nightmare: this documentary unpacks the story of Sarpa salpa, the so‑called “dream fish” of the Mediterranean. Drawing on medical case reports, toxicology research, and eyewitness accounts, the video explores how a common dinner fish can trigger intense hallucinations, terrifying visions, and profound disorientation through a natural hallucinogenic poison.
We look at references from ancient Roman banquets, medieval and early modern descriptions of “madness from the sea,” and modern incidents involving tourists and local fishermen along the coasts of France, Italy, and North Africa. Along the way, the episode explains the biology behind the toxin, its ecological purpose as a defense mechanism, and the cultural history that turned this unassuming species into a minor legend of Mediterranean folklore and medical history.
