Living on a beach near Omaha Beach is not as idyllic as it seems. Especially if, suffering from hyperacusis, you witness a crime in which you know both the murderer and the victim. Should you tell the police, who have no evidence or clues, and turn your life upside down, or should you keep quiet and continue sipping beers and watching the sea?

A windy November night, somewhere near Omaha Beach. Sitting on his veranda overlooking the sea, a man saw someone stabbing a woman on the beach below. Suffering from hyperacusis, he first heard the couple’s distant voices before witnessing the murder. He was the only witness. In the moonlight, he recognizes... A windy November night, somewhere near Omaha Beach. Sitting on his veranda overlooking the sea, a man saw someone stabbing a woman on the beach below. Suffering from hyperacusis, he first heard the couple’s distant voices before witnessing the murder. He was the only witness. In the moonlight, he recognizes the murderer. He also knows the victim. He must reveal what he saw to the authorities. But something prevents him from doing so. The very idea of denouncing the culprit fills him with incomprehensible anguish. He even hardly remembers what happened. Besides, the plans of a powerful property developer who is also the victim’s husband confuse him. The investigation is moving forward, but there is no evidence to catch the murderer. Will the witness finally talk? Does his hyperacusis play a role in the case? Is he keeping, deep inside, a secret he is unaware of? The staggering conclusion of the investigation will betray the reason for his silence.
