In this animated film, George has been left behind by his wife and daughter, who no longer want to live in a dried-out sea. Even though he doesn't want to lose them, he can't find the strength to end his past as a fisherman. George maintains his old fishing boat on a daily basis. Though it lies in the vastness of the desert, he is convinced the sea will come back one day! A sandstorm helps him to see the meaning of his existence: to let go of his past and follow the path of his wife and daughter.
