The Sharks

Rosina (Romina Bentancur) is an only 14 years old uruguayan young woman with some difficulties in meeting people around her, so she has no friends and the few conversations she manages to establish with people are limited to single words. In the small town where he lives, one day the tranquility of the area begins to break when he warns of the alleged appearance of sharks in the spa. Rosina thinks she has seen something also in the sea, but everyone still doesn't pay much attention, since her family is too focused on the work of the coming summer season. Therefore, her father takes her with him to work in the maintenance of several houses. There he will meet Joselo (Federico Morosini), a fisherman older than her, to whom the young woman will begin to feel a love interest barely reciprocated. However, she decides to draw up a twisted but awkward plan to get his attention, also motivated by the character of the surrounding sharks.
