Description

Against the backdrop of the beachfront of the Nea Chora district, two women, Elsa and Olga, enjoy their last, autumnal baths in the sea. As the everyday life of the two women is registered in the space of the neighborhood through their conversations, their daily presence there, and their relationship with the filmmaker, issues emerge regarding female friendship, the appropriation of space, and the creation of bonds based on care and friendship in the third age. Supported by Open Sails festival, municipality of Chania.
