Early in the new tourist season in the Adriatic, a family of six go to the beach in Savudrija. Seven years ago their father drowned on that beach. This is the children’s, now age 15 to 28, and their mother’s first time they went to the seaside all together after that tragic event. The filmmaker, the eldest son, records this moment without the presence of a film crew, making it possible to open up intimate conversatins in the family about collective trauma and personaly ways of coping with loss.
