*FILM SYNOPSIS:*
"A fast paced triptych revealing the opposing forces of today’s
humanitarian challenges. Nakos, a banal racist, had enough of the thousands
of refugees in his neighborhood. Tarek, a Syrian ex-Military doctor is
looking for a deal to smuggle out of Greece with his daughter. Billy a
tattoo artist falls in love with Tereza, an African singer who is also
looking for an escape by the sea. The three stories merge when Nako’s
malicious acts stop Tereza’s and Tarek’s smuggler Hassan. Their illegal
trip is interrupted and they have to find another way out. While time is
running out for everyone, Billy steps in to organize the escape."
