"...Within the confines of a strict, all-girls English boarding school (circa 1930's), a clique of students participate on the swim team not only to pass the time, but to be close to their swimming instructor, the enigmatic, yet charismatic, 'Miss G' (Eva Green).
While Miss G originally encourages the idolization and 'crack' (crush) on her, the teacher's attention is quickly focused on the arrival of an exotic and beautiful Spanish foreign pupil, 'Fiamma' (María Valverde).
As the new girl rebuffs her classmates, and further rejects Miss G's interest, her teammates begin to grow jealous of Miss G's fascination with Fiamma...then Fiamma inexplicably goes missing..."
