In a small fishing village, people have been living the same life for generations. The life of the people is only slightly above that of the countryside in which they live. All that they have and that identifies them as human beings comes from the sea.
But one night, the normal order of things is disturbed… the morning brings doubt with it: was all this a story of a metafor warnings us of the fact that we can never get away from nature and that we should bear this fact in mind… —Zagreb Film
