What do we carry within us? What do we pass on? Our history, our wounds, our humanity?

The movie shows in a gentle way how everything is bound together. Empathy and closeness can be possible and difficult at the same time. With clear pictures the movie invites us to take a deeper look: at the experience of violence, exclusion, internal and external struggles.

At the end stays the hope, that healing is possible, when one has the courage to break free from fate.
