Synopsis
An empty beachhouse settled between dunes and the roar of the sea … a perfect spot for swimming — though it's the middle of March!
A woman, her brother, and an eccentric dream catcher set up camp, but a masked stranger's arrival complicates their fantastic plan to swim out to touch the sun.
This poignant comedy of loneliness and escape reevaluates notions of beauty as five outcasts discover just how much they'll give — and give up — for love.
