Life Class centres on a pivotal exchange between Eve (Molly Vevers), who's trapped in a relationship that’s no longer working, and Celeste (Pooky Quesnel), whose reflections on love and loss unfold alongside Eve’s uncertainty. Through their conversation, the film explores what it means to be seen, to change, and to choose a different path.

Two people tune into each other across the noise of the world. When the signal fades, what remains? A story of connection built not on certainty, but on echoes, pauses, and the quiet rhythm of shared moments. A relationship told through the subtle shifts of presence and absence, of intimacy and distance, and the traces we learn to hear when someone is gone.

Two friends reconnect in the seaside town where they grew up. They confront the past, share who they've become and conclude the conversation that tore them apart. The ever-present sea narrates a tale of memory, belonging and vulnerability.
