A young boy, Thomas, visits his grandparent's home for the first time since his grandfather's passing. Among the stillness of the house, he finishes building a model ship left in his grandfather's workshop. Frantically completing the ship, the boy unexpectedly takes his work and sets it sail into the ocean. Caught between surreal dreams and waking life, at dawn the boy rushes back to the ocean, diving into the water, swimming to it's depths, where he discovers a life-sized sunken ship. Forced to resurface, the boy climbs out of the water, to face the rising sun and a new reality.
