A film about people who left the cities and sought their fortune in the forest and by the sea. An exploration of downshifting, fleeing the system or problems. The carefree life of summer contrasts with the harsh winter existence. The filming took place over several years on the beaches of the Black Sea and Sardinia. Today, the beaches of Utrish and Valle della Luna no longer exist. A massive fire destroyed part of the ancient forest, and the commune in Sardinia was evicted by the local police.
