Synopsis

In a small fishing village generations live in a monotonous rhythm. The life of people is only a bit above of the life of the landscape they live in. all they have and all that identifies them as people comes from the sea. But one night, the order of things is disturbed… The morning brings suspicion: was it all just fiction or a cautionary metaphor telling us that we can never step away from nature and should keep that in mind?
