Mauro is a surfer used to challenging the ocean’s most massive waves. However, an accident forces him into a long rehabilitation, distancing him from the sea and the life he loved. While at the clinic, he meets Federico, a young athlete suffering from ataxia and confined to a wheelchair, yet possessed of an extraordinary life force. An unexpected friendship blossoms between them, leading Mauro to make an impulsive decision: to escape the routine and set off with Federico on an unconventional journey. It is a trip that will become a quest for freedom, identity, and rebirth.
