A formerly rich Czech-Australian emigrant comes to a tiny, poor and sleepy Greek Island to rethink her life. Surprisingly she develops a sincere relationship with two other women who each in their own way suffer from their pasts.
The film leaves you with a strong impression of a rugged but beautiful island, where foreigners come for short stays to resolve their personal problems. It was a good idea, to have the three women from different cultures in an isolated place, but the characters seemed distant.
