Summary
Two newlyweds, pockets turned inside-out by a rent collector, abandon their sun-bleached beach shack; within minutes a second couple—equally penniless, twice as delusional—slips through the unlocked screen door and claims the creaking deck chairs as their own. What follows is a brittle carnival of mistaken ownership: kettles boil over, love letters meant for the first wife are read aloud by the second husband, a runaway goat devours the lease, and the tide keeps erasing every fresh set of footprints until identity itself becomes driftwood. Shot in 1923, the film’s gelatin-silver images ripple like heatstroke, letting slapstick mutate into something eerier—a seaside fever dream where property lines dissolve faster than sandcastles and marriage vows echo like gulls inside an empty lobster trap.
Synopsis
When one couple fails to pay their rent another couple moves into their beach bungalow and chaos ensues.
