About the film

Daniel is a widowed father living in northern Martinique with his 8-year-old daughter, Soraya. As a fisherman and restaurateur, he struggles to make ends meet in a town facing a severe economic and social crisis. His daily life is turned upside down when Soraya decides to summon mermaids using a conch shell. While the little girl simply wants to make friends, Daniel perceives her new obsession as a potential threat of danger.
