A melancholic meditation on lost youth and wasted potential, structured around a funeral that triggers an extended nostalgic journey into a formative seaside past.

An aging Hollywood star, Joe Scott, lives a life of narcissistic hedonism, observed by his laconic personal assistant, Ophelia. The death of his childhood best friend, Boots, takes our protagonist, and the movie, into an extended flashback to a sea-side town in 1970s Britain.
