Synopsis
This is a film about the struggle of three musicians from the geographical extremes of Europe. The three share a deep bond: they are the resistance of traditional music in their regions and their lives are tied to the culture of their ancestors. In them, the territory, memory, old trades and popular culture shake hands in the form of musical expression. All of them beat an unanswered question: what is music? Three traditional musicians, quite anonymous outside their regions, craftsmen with no close links to the music industry. Because of the difficulty of connecting these musics to the contemporary public, music is sacred.
