A couple enjoy their holiday drinking on the beach. After they doze off, the weather starts to change. A large, dark figure lies on the beach when they wake. Pretty soon, more and more people feel the need to interfere.
By the Shore is a virtual-reality portrait of group dynamics. As a viewer, you are right at the centre of the experience and you sense the atmosphere getting more and more oppressive.
