Lucia from Russia and her six year old daughter find themselves living in Paris streets. They don’t have a stable residence, they sleep wherever they find. One night in the house of a Russian priest, another night in the social services centre or a four star hotel. They live each day as the day their life would change, meet different people, aimlessly wander around and wait for the miracle that would find them. Because their lives don’t change as they hoped and they started to sleep under the bridge, Russian community buy them tickets to go back home. Maruissa rebels her mother and runs away. On the other hand, she wants to know what a real childhood is like. But what would Lucia do?
Three people sleeping side by side. On the uncomfortable seats of the stuffy airplane in the air. Three friends. I’m the friend in the window seat. The other two are a couple, Emre and Melisa. I’m alone, they are together. And another difference. I’ve only closed my eyes. They are asleep.
You try to remember the future. A bird painted on the ceramic panel in a historical palace has found its place on the wall. The tiles of a church and a mosque have been painted on canvas. The pattern of a centuries-old ceramic plate appears before you on a velvet curtain.
The war fought by the Greeks to shake off the Turkish yoke was closely observed around Europe and, this being the era of romanticism, the events taking place around Greece between 1821 and 1832 became a symbol for national liberation struggle.
