What Soft Shell Man Is About

An underwater photographer comes home after a long trip away. Two matters are waiting for him. The first is the wife he left six months earlier. The second is his closest friend’s girlfriend, a woman who is deaf. From the moment he is back he falls between the two. He has trouble taking on the consequences of his own decisions.
