Salt Covers All

Synopsis
57 is the number of female weavers who work on the coasts of the Basque Country, a traditional occupation that they continue as if time had stopped. With their hands covered in salt, they silently weave without stopping. They are part of the sea and its mystery. The radio alert of a ship breaks the night, a lighthouse illuminates everything with its light, a sailor drifts through the thoughts of the water and several hands dance and dance until they merge with the nets.
