Nestled at the very tip of England, where the mighty Atlantic Ocean gracefully collides with the land, and the summer season brings a flock of visitors akin to seagulls, lies a Cornwall that remains hidden from the postcards. This enigmatic region is a place where communication cables delve deep beneath the sandy terrain, satellite dishes gracefully bloom on cliff edges, and individuals become like flotsam, swept away by the ebbing tides. Restless children prowl through abandoned holiday homes, a surfer battles the treacherous undertow of family responsibilities, a young girl witnesses her childhood slip away in the chaotic whirlwind of a nighttime fairground, and within the intricate network of sea caves, a brother and sister embark on a quest to uncover something lost in the dark. These captivating and enchanting tales, brimming with ghosts and shifting sands, explore profound notions of landscape and belonging, the interplay between permanence and impermanence, and the indelible grip that places can have on our souls.
