In a quiet and somewhat dusty hotel on the English coast, a group of guests with intertwined lives finds themselves at an emotional crossroads. Among them is a World War II veteran seeking redemption and a woman trapped in a loveless marriage. At first, the interactions seem superficial, but soon the secrets that each of them has been hiding beneath the surface are revealed.
The courtship between a young and sweet guest, yearning for a genuine connection, and an older man, who is a regular at the place, becomes the focal point of a bittersweet and complex love story. Meanwhile, another resident, a mysterious character with a troubling past, confronts the shadows of his own life and the consequences of his actions. As the ties that bind these strangers begin to unravel, the guests are forced to confront their deepest fears and desires.
With the weight of life pressing down, the struggle to find happiness, and the inevitability of social judgment, each dinner in the dining room becomes a representation of what is truly at stake for each of them. Ultimately, understanding and empathy emerge as powerful forces, holding them up on a journey where truths are uncovered and relationships are tested, leaving a nuanced reflection on loneliness, redemption, and love in unexpected circumstances.
