Beyond the Ocean

John owns an important software company in New York, but despite his success he finds he no longer relates to the frenetic world around him. He makes a completely irrational decision and catches the next plane to Bali, checks into the best hotel and isolates himself completely, in order to take a good look at his life. By chance he meets Marissa and allows himself to be seduced by the mysterious girl with a troubled past and present. John’s new found tranquillity is interrupted by the unexpected arrival of his wife and bother, but his marriage is over and decides to stay to sort his life out. At a party organized by Marissa, John hurts himself while fooling around, and Jenny, a painter, takes care of him. She has painted Marissa as Kali, the Hindu goddess of death and destruction, but unexpectedly leaves for Singapore with Marissa’s partner.
