As a movie lover you want to be surprised. A good movie is able to do that, but also lesser films can have moments you didn’t expect or make a profound impression on you.

So if you want to visit the other one you have to wear things heavier than you from the other world to stay there. That’s what the main character is this film does.

That’s what has happened here, so the character has jumped into sea and swam away from sure to get rid of his weight and “fall” back to his own world.
