A winter on the beach. 
The relationship between Ana and Miguel breaks down between meals and conversations: the closer she gets to the sea, the further away they are from each other.

In the words of its screenwriter and director, Laura Plaza A Dead Shark It's an intimate drama centered on the silent unraveling of a relationship. It portrays the difficulties of expressing unwanted or inappropriate feelings, of coping with loss. Throughout the short film, we accompany Ana and her fears and doubts; she must confront her anxieties and find strength to ultimately do what's best for herself and the relationship. The piece focuses on the small routines of life as a couple and shows two characters who find themselves at very different points in terms of what they want or need from each other. The conflict isn't on the surface, but if you step on the sand, you might feel what lies hidden beneath.
