Description
Stormy night. A boat runs aground near the coast. Shipwrecked people reach the shore, scared. They flee. A backpack remains in the sand, it belongs to a child, Omar. The old fisherman Ezechiele, accompanied by his nephew and his puppy Spaghetti, decides to make "the crossing" across the sea, to bring the backpack back to his mother and reassure her that her little one has arrived safe and sound on our shores. Ezechiele feels he has to do it, he feels he has to make that journey in the name of sharing, brotherhood and the importance of small gestures. The strange company begins an adventure that will take them to the melancholic Neverland, to face the open sea, and finally find a way to communicate in a completely unknown country.
