SYNOPSIS<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A man, a girl and a beach: The man throws the girl into the sea, again and again, even though she cannot swim. And that\u2019s how the days go by\u2026 Laconically, the Syrian directors Rana Kazkaz and Anas Khalaf depict the terrible decisions that people have to make in a situation from which there is no escape. On the one hand there is war, on the other a sea which appears unconquerable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
