Pep has to die. That's what the doctors say. But Pep doesn't want to die in hospital. He wants to go off into the desert, like the elephants. Near the border, he crashes his car. That's how Dania picks him up. That's how she gets him to where he wants to disappear.

Clemente is an old Sicilian fisherman who goes on working in spite of his late age. His life is disrupted the day he finds a young refugee’s dead body stuck in the fishing nets.
