Simon, together with other students, escapes from the physical education class to the green river. It is difficult for the boy to connect with rebellious and free-spirited classmates. Against the background of inflatable mattresses and light splashing, time flows slowly like a riverbed. While the teenagers are looking for an escape from boredom, Simon is interested in other things. When Mari appears, an unexpected event transports them both to another space, timeless and frozen. The unconventional and ambitious film explores loneliness and the collision of individuality and community with associative shots.
