Synopsis

On a remote, beautiful lake in Chile, a middle-class father, Ricardo, and his two daughters are sailing to visit the family’s vacation home, which is falling apart from years of neglect. As his daughters nap on deck in the mid-day sun, Ricardo sees a group of men on a small boat that seem to be in distress, and calling for help. Paranoid to a fault, he turns his sailboat in the other direction, but his daughters awaken and call him out for his lack of compassion. Shamed by his daughters, Ricardo returns to help the men, who board his sailboat. One of the men is now missing and feared drowned. A tense search ensues, in which an ugly fear festers between all parties, and circumstances are set in motion that cannot be reversed.
