Eighteen-year-old Nawa is a rural boy who grew up with the river and competitive longboat rowing. He has a dream of rowing his father's boat to provincial championship victory, but an issue brings him to stop playing the sport and separate from his friends. When Nawa starts his first year of university, he meets Pai, a fellow science major with a determination to become a rower for the national canoeing team and a dream to eventually compete in the Olympics. Meeting Pai leads Nawa to take up the paddle again. When by happenstance Nawa joins a canoeing club, Nawa feels he begins to know himself again.
Dream on the water
Dream under the water
Converging rivers
Pleased to meet you
A call from under the water
Standing in two boats
To row a boat with love
In the same boat
Death and dreams
Don't let your dream expire
The stump is visible at low tide
Let me go with you
