Between the waves

A young painter, torn between her passion for art and her family's expectations, retreats to a beach in search of clarity, only to face the turbulence of her unresolved dreams.

Torn between her passion for the arts and her mother’s dreams of a stable future, Emily retreats to the coast in search of solitude. Amid the rhythm of the sea, she confronts her inner turbulence, realizing that clarity may not come easily. Along the way, she meets an oyster farmer whose life is bound to the ocean’s pulse. Through their quiet conversations, Emily begins to reflect, grow, and uncover unexpected wisdom. Between the Waves is a tender exploration of self-discovery, the weight of unspoken expectations, and the pursuit of an artistic life.
