    • Synopsis
    • Almost 100 years have passed since the last natural contact between people of different sexes. After a long civil war, the law of a regime ruled by a supremacist hembrist faction, born as a response to a world that was on the verge of being annihilated by men, reigns supremacist. With the defeat of the Feminist Resistance for Equality (FRE), a dictatorship was imposed whose priority was to confine men in prisons called "Fish tanks" and eliminate all masculinity from human beings and their culture, until their complete extermination.

      In an unusual place away from everything, inside a cave on the beach, Rena, a new mother who fled with her newborn baby boy after refusing to hand him over to the authorities, hides. She is soon joined by Fil, a man who, after years of swimming in an experimental tank, has dared to jump out of his fish tank in the middle of the ocean. In order to survive, the two are forced to learn to identify each other's instincts and feelings, exploring an unprecedented day-to-day life as they try to evade the regime's patrols. The arrival of a third person, a member of the resistance, will transform everyone's destiny forever.
