“When you lose a child, you live in two worlds, but you don’t exist in one.” On November 16, 2021, Jannie and Ronel du Plessis experienced the unthinkable: the drowning of their 10-month-old baby boy, Jan-Nataniël. Ronel describes her swimming pool as a sacred place after the tragedy: the last place he was alive on Earth and where she still feels his presence. It is her place between Heaven and Earth. This documentary revolves around Ronel, Jannie and the Du Plessis family’s vulnerability and grieving process. It is a sensitive look at how different people process loss and how one day can change a life irrevocably.
