Synopsis

On Colombia’s Pacific Coast, a mother teaches her daughter, Dulce, how to swim. It is an essential skill in this remote region, where livelihoods are made on the sea and where rising tides have swept entire villages away. Overcoming her fear of the water is just one element of Dulce’s budding awareness of her natural and cultural surroundings.
