A single father takes his young adult twin son and daughter on a boating holiday to Poros, secretly planning for them to meet their birth mother who abandoned them when they were very young. The languid summer days, bright sun and calming island colors reveal nothing of the dramatic tension to come. When the reunion takes place, a show of toxic masculinity shifts the focus from the twins to the father, exposing the family’s emotional state and everyone’s need to move on.
