É verão em uma pequena vila no sudeste da Espanha. Uma tempestade ameaça fazer com que o rio que a atravessa volte a transbordar. Uma velha crença popular afirma que algumas mulheres estão predestinadas a desaparecer a cada nova enchente, porque elas têm a “água dentro”. Um bando de jovens tenta superar o cansaço de um verão na aldeia que cheira a morte fumando, dançando e cobiçando uns aos outros. Nesta atmosfera elétrica que antecede a tempestade, Ana e José vivem um caso de amor até que a tempestade estoura.

Every morning Krilli prepares the myriad ingredients required to make the lobster soup at the Bryggjan café, a tiny eatery in Iceland’s dullest town. His wife helps him in the kitchen and yearns to return to Rejkyavik. In the café, Krilli’s brother Alli sits with the old fishermen, the last boxer in Iceland and the translator of Don Quixote into Icelandic. Every day they find a new answer to the world’s problems. Once a month the neighbours meet at the Bryggjan café to remember those who died in Grindavik and pronounce their names. Four crazy musicians play jazz. A few lost tourists turn up at the fishing harbour and are captivated by the atmosphere in the café. Real people, they think. A real place. On the other side of the mountain is the Blue Lagoon, the island’s great attraction. People from all over the world come in fascination to see the volcanoes, the ice and the genesis of the Earth.

Spanish Civil War, May, 1938. Four villages in Castellón, Benassal, Albocàsser, Ares del Maestrat and Vilar de Canes, were bombed from the sky and ravaged. 38 people died. Inhabitants never knew for sure who piloted the planes responsible for such atrocity, although the rebel propaganda attributed the act to the republican side. Now, 80 years later, the truth is finally exposed.
