    • Synopsis
    • It is summer. A summer by the sea. It is hot, a wind is blowing and the waves are foaming in an endlessly melodic, eternally even rhythm, rolling the tide to the shore. Little children play, a mother is watching over them, soon joined by the father. An older lady walks by, later a man flying a string of kites that rise up in the wind. All is quiet and languid. The sea is steady, likewise the light.
      A forever unchanging holiday at a flat sandy beach characteristic of the Adriatic coast. Family vacation, endless hours, boredom, memories and dreams. The longing for a different life, for a new love, for transgression.
