About the film

A lone writer from Sudan imagines his journey across the landscape of once glorious Greece. He encounters seventeen dogs, an abandoned textile factory, and unexpected hospitality of an old woman. His return home is marked by the incredible; he is no longer a mad wanderer, but a prophet to be.
