Mauricio is a lifeguard who tries to steer clear from getting in the water. He believes that a good professional applies preventive measures to stop people from drowning, so he tries to make everything run according to his rules. Maite Alberdi’s first feature-length film shows the beginning development of her observational style and her knack for following interesting but ordinary people with a story to tell.
