Synopsis
Centers on Andreas Sam, a young writer searching for his roots as well as the memory of his father who got lost in the storm of World War II. Roaming the labyrinth of the past he faces more and more new questions instead of finding any answers. That is, how the journey in the past starting from itself and ending in itself becomes the catalog of a Central Eastern European man's feelings, doubts, helplessness, homelessness, constant home-sickness and desire to belong to someone and somewhere while living among various civilizations and religions--often forced into a minority position.
