Summary

Documentary, that describes in a poetic way the traces in the ancient mythical musician in Lesbos. We randomly ask simple people, what they know about Orpheus. Their answers are outboasted. Among the locals, the highly awarded Chinese poet Lanlan consides the place as the cradle of ancient music and poetry. The takes took place in shores, where for years refugees arrived, in the same places where -centuries ago- the sea and the myth, washed out the pound and Orpheus' head.
