Greece in the year 2000 BC. Β group of shepherds come down from the mountain in search of fresh pastures. They lose their way and come across some fishermen’s wives whose husbands are at sea. Brief love is born between young Skymnos, a shepherd’s son and Chloe. The wild games of the two adolescents awaken the desire of Lyka, a mute shepherd who abducts Chloe. Unable to live with the bitterness of betrayal, Skymnos allows himself to be swept away by the waves.

It was a quiet night in the dessert. Even the mice weren’t around. A few LEDs blinked in the dark, and the sound of a fan filled the infinite void. The conversation cutting the silence seemed to go nowhere.
