Spoilers ahead
In a coastal town, a ten-year-old girl lives with her mother in a neglected tenement, her days shadowed by loneliness and a sense of being unseen. She doesn’t fit in with her peers, and the mother’s care feels scarce and distant, leaving the girl to navigate a world that often seems indifferent to her presence. The setting itself—the weathered walls, the creaking stairs, and the restless sea—echoes a life that has little room for tenderness.
