Los Amour

Life in the beach town of Los Amour is simple. You’re born, you fish, maybe you love, and eventually you die. That is it. It seems as though life will be that simple for The Kid, especially after his father, a highly respected member of the community, dies prematurely in a fishing accident. He has to give up his childhood, his friends, and his dreams to work and care for two out of control brothers and a mother who is consumed with her own grief and bitterness.

Now 19, The Kid is without any direction or ambition, except to stay away from his increasingly abusive mother. Friendless and practically homeless, he keeps to himself. He hasn’t any real friends and can’t even imagine talking to the girl he pines for as she jogs down the beach each morning. By his own resolve, The Kid is absolutely alone.

However, all that begins to change after he befriends a strange old hermit living in a wrecked boat on the beach. While the old man talks like a preacher, The Kid discovers he also harbors a dark secret, kept locked away in an ornate wooden box. What sort of secret could this charming and obviously kind soul possess? The Kid can’t imagine, but as he will soon find out, it has the power to challenge all he believes about life, love and humanity.
