A tragic incident on Greece's northern border strikes a local family of three, pushing them to face their own personal impasses, while having to deeply consider the price for their actions.
A middle-aged fisherman living on Greece's northern border, drowning in debt, starts to smuggle migrants across the border lake in exchange for a hefty fee.
