The film, which takes us on a journey to the Fournoi Islands in the northeastern part of Greece, introduces us to the local community with a rich maritime history and a deep-rooted culture.

Women not only manage household chores and raise children but also work in various fields such as construction and agriculture, thereby controlling the island's economy.
