Synopsis

Andreas travels to his dead mother’s home on the island. The character of the landscape has been altered. And the inhabitants - those that remain - don’t remember much. Foreign races, families and groups of foreigners flood the island. Andreas can no longer find his home. Everything has changed for good. And so he decides to do the only thing left to him. As he immerses himself in the myth - he reconstructs the lost landscape. He sets the blue line of the horizon where it used to be.
