Synopsis

After deciding to take a term off from their studies to think about their plans for the future, school friends Maya, Sirma and Spartacus set of hitchhiking to the sea and onwards to the Greek island of Thasos. Along the way they meet Boril Krustev, a middle aged widower, who they recognise as a former rock star. As the four journey through the troubled Balkan states, old wounds surface as they reflect on their past, the politics of their land and overcoming the guilt and shame they feel about the turbulence of their relationships with each other.
