“Some summers change you forever. Others help you find your way back.”

Story Overview:
Several years after their unforgettable summer in Portorosso, Luca and Alberto have grown apart—both chasing different dreams beyond their seaside hometown. Luca studies far away, fascinated by books and the wider world, while Alberto stays closer to the coast, learning responsibility and what it means to belong.

When Luca returns to Portorosso for the summer, the town feels smaller… yet more meaningful. As old friendships are tested and new secrets from the sea begin to surface, Luca and Alberto must face the truth about who they’ve become—and who they still are deep inside.

A mysterious change in the ocean hints that the balance between sea monsters and humans may not last forever, forcing the boys to choose between hiding, running, or finally embracing both worlds.
