The story of a poor village, where time seems to have stood still, intersects and intertwines with the fate of a girl fleeing her bitter reality, cast ashore by the sea onto an unknown coast, along with the tales of other complex characters in a remarkable human novel.

Nora, a 13-year-old girl, is confronted with violence and the world of the irrational. Her environment is disturbed by her visions, but seems indifferent to her suffering.
