Synopsis

Mime is the old gentleman who always shows up at just the right moment: when he was young, he swam across the lake, married a mermaid, and his method for learning how to swim is foolproof. All the better, because Fanfan, despite being nine years old, still can’t swim. He would love to, but there’s nothing he can do—he can’t overcome his fear of water. Not even for the beautiful eyes of Lila, a classmate who is also a mermaid.
