As Kostas returns from Paris to his hometown of Mytilene after nearly two long decades of absence, the familiar but changed island evokes dear memories. But, what drove him away? Can he face the truth and the pale ghosts of the past?

After nearly two long decades of absence, Kostas returns from Paris to his hometown of Mytilene, to accept the inheritance of the family's ancestral home. As his portable digital camera documents the grand arrival of the prodigal son, and the warm reacquaintance with relatives and friends, the intangible but unbreakable bond between the vivid memories of a then-ten-year-old Kostakis and the new reality of a familiar but evolved place becomes more solid than ever. However, what drove Kostas away from his beloved island? Can he face the truth and the pale ghosts of the past?—Nick Riganas
