A descent into the world of mourning and loss through three homicide stories, that shocked the Greek and European society; the cruel murders of Shahzad Luqman, Pavlos Fyssas and Zak Kostopoulos. The grieving families of the victims converse with their absences, defend the memory of the dead, transmute their suffering into a fight for justice. A kaleidoscope on loneliness in private space, courtrooms and the streets.
