Synopsis

The film is about the price we pay for our freedom. We meet Mia, 37 years old and recently divorced, who is about to celebrate her first major holiday with her new love. Mia is torn between the responsibilities of being a parent and the desire to give up and let everything spiral out of control. When they roll into the ferry's parking deck, Mia realizes that she has created an impossible situation for herself and everyone else. "Deck 5b" is a film about longing, passion, broken promises, and dog hair. One could also say that it’s a ghost story.
