Quando scopre che i cadaveri del padre, della madre, della sorella e del cane del suo cliente vennero trovati nella vasca da bagno in un lago di sangue, capisce il perché di quella richiesta.

Trent’anni dopo, quella vicenda rivive sulla stessa spiaggia, intrecciandosi alla storia di un regista e del suo gruppo teatrale.
