Road maps are open, endless texts that may contain any number of stories, including the story of the traveler himself. A filmmaker from the north and a photographer from the south travel to a strange place. It is a land where people are worn out by their history, where time tends to freeze, and every encounter is in the curve of a mirror that makes you look into familiar eyes.
Country(ies) : LATVIA, GEORGIA
