A group of teenagers rent a house with a sauna for a party. Everybody is having a good time: dancing, singing, drinking, talking. The party ends and everybody leaves, but in the morning the housekeepers come to clean the place and in the dressing room they find a girl who is trying to find a button of her ripped up trousers.
DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT
In By the Pool a tragic event is depicted from the perspective of a group rather than concentrating on a single character personal point-of-view, in order to try and understand how one individual’s tragedy gets drown out by the tumult caused by the group as a whole.

兩姊妹帶著各自的丈夫和孩子，前往鄉間別墅共度週末，慶祝先生在綜合格鬥剛奪下勝利，也討論家庭財務問題。然而，愉快底下似乎潛藏焦慮，直到戲水時一樁意外，就此改變兩個家庭。記憶循環，甚至誤判，有時悲傷延緩，有時創傷移轉；意外對每個人造成不同影響，但痛楚中蘊含重新開始的可能，生活總歸繼續。
