Synopsis

An homage to the city of Plovdiv and the author’s childhood, the film follows a solitary man who wanders around the empty streets of Plovdiv in an attempt to return to his home. Meanwhile, various figures roam the fragmented spaces of the house from his memories. As with every return, what is closest to the heart inevitably remains intangible.
