What happens

Coastlines is a 2002 dramatic film written and directed by Victor Nuñez. It is the third of three films by Nuñez set in the Florida Panhandle after Ruby in Paradise (1993) and Ulee's Gold (1997). The film made its debut at the 2002 Sundance Film Festival but was not released until 2006 as it could not find a distributor, when the American rights were officially acquired by IFC Films.
