Two brothers draw the same scene. One sees what's there. The other sees what lives inside him, a whole ocean of gentle creatures the world doesn't ask for. When he finally shows his younger brother what he's been looking at the whole time, the smaller one understands: some people don't see the world the way you do, and that's not confusion. That's a gift. The film moves like water, unhurried and exact, asking nothing from you except to sit still long enough to see what someone else sees. It costs almost nothing to watch. It gives you more than it should.
In art class, two brothers draw pictures, yet each sees something completely different. The younger one is puzzled by his older brother, who seems absorbed in a world of his own. Then the big brother lets him into that world, a lovely place full of gentle sea creatures. A slice-of-life film about two siblings and the different ways they see things.
