Silver, a young woman grappling with her own identity and place in the world, finds solace in the lighthouse where she works with her mother, Peg. Peg, a solitary and enigmatic figure, carries the weight of her past and the secrets that haunt her. As Trinity, an enigmatic and worldly woman, enters their lives, the delicate balance of their existence is irrevocably altered.
