Through the eyes of a local 12-year-old boy and the island’s doctor, the film juxtaposes the daily life of the islanders with the perilous journeys of migrants seeking refuge. The film’s powerful narrative and striking visuals earned it the prestigious Golden Bear at the 66th Berlin International Film Festival.
