This hybrid personal essay ventures into the depths of the country which the filmmaker's grandparents left 80 years ago in one of the colonialist-driven waves of migration. Searching for memories and associations, he wanders through the abandoned city, trying to connect with the imagery and thought of his ancestors and looking inside his own perception, reflecting on the traces of inspiration and the spirit of the places he explores.

In Thomas Moore's 'Utopia', people do not have a permanent place of residence. Every 12 years, everyone exchanges their home with each other. Homes do not even have doors or windows at all. This short cinema is inspired from this concept.

After industrialization, human dominance over animals has changed in another way. The film portrays the world shrinking beyond the "Orwellian" era of questioning exploitation and establishing another revolutionary dictatorship, with dictatorships unrecognizable or isolated defenses.
