A disillusioned linguist returns to his coastal hometown after a decade abroad, drawn by a whisper of an ancient legend that lingers in the fog-locked harbor. When a series of inexplicable disappearances unsettles the quiet streets, he teams with a vulnerable local teacher and a grizzled fisherman who knows the sea’s old stories by heart. As the trio uncovers a network of hidden tunnels beneath the town, they must parse memory from myth, and sacrifice from truth. With time slipping away, they confront a debt owed to the ocean and to the generations who vanished into its depths. Quiet, haunting, and defiantly human.
