Heurtebise
The wind blows hard in Heurtebise, Alice's home in France. This year will be her last summer and the first one for her great-grandson Dario. A life that comes to an end and another that begins. A house, three women, a baby, and the sea.
Huntsville Station
Every weekday, dozens of inmates are released from Huntsville State Penitentiary. With a bus ticket voucher and $100 release check, most of them take in their first moments out with phone calls, cigarettes, and quiet reflection at the Greyhound station up the block. In this pivotal moment, between incarceration and freedom, a myriad of complicated emotions arise before the bus arrives to take them home.
