Synopsis
Ormai alla deriva, le vite dei tre fratelli si muovono separatamente attraverso le acque inesplorate del Sud Africa; Anton, il ragazzo d'oro che risente amaramente per le promesse non mantenute della sua vita; Astrid, la cui bellezza è il suo potere; e il più giovane, Amor, la cui vita è plasmata da un nebuloso senso di colpa. Riunita da quattro funerali nell'arco di tre decenni, questa famiglia in declino riflette l'atmosfera del suo paese: un'atmosfera di risentimento, rinnovamento e, in definitiva, speranza.
