Oona, a recent graduate in anthropology, has returned to her dead mother’s seaside cottage in southern England to prepare it for sale. Her arrival disturbs Mani, a wary vagrant who has been squatting on the property.

It begins in a deserted public bath house, on a sultry summer afternoon. The building is blacked out and its landlady goes into men's bath to handle the situation. There, she accidentally witnesses something which afterwards causes irreversible changes in her life.

A man has shelled out good money to be served at a bath house, or soap land, by the attendants.

Three girls are taking a bath in a quiet, shady spot along a beautiful stream. Another young lady in bathing attire reclines on the bank. The latter suddenly discovers two hoboes coming toward the bathers and immediately gives the alarm. They throw water over the hoboes, who gather up the clothes of the fair bathers and make off, compelling the bathers to walk home in barrels. In order to conceal themselves as much as possible they hold the barrels rather high.
