After working on a documentary in the Saharawi refugee camps in Africa, Erica travels to Spain for a vacation with her boyfriend. She tells him about a nightmare in which she searched desperately for him because he had disappeared hang-gliding over the ocean. Since the recent death of her parents, Erica has been suffering episodes of memory loss and disturbing dreams. They venture out to explore secluded virgin beaches and picturesque villages, in love, but innocently trapped in a whirlwind as Erica’s dream becomes reality, spiralling into a death-bound nightmare. Forever is a good word.

Dopo aver lavorato a un documentario nei campi profughi saharawi in Africa, Erica si reca in Spagna per una vacanza con il suo ragazzo. Gli racconta di un incubo in cui lo cercava disperatamente perché era scomparso deltaplanando sull’oceano. Dopo la recente morte dei suoi genitori, Erica soffre di episodi di amnesia e sogni disturbanti. Esplorano spiagge vergini isolate e pittoreschi villaggi, innamorati, ma ingenuamente intrappolati in un vortice mentre il sogno di Erica diventa realtà, precipitando in un incubo legato alla morte. “Forever is a good word”.
