On the sun-burnt isle of Qeshm, the old fisherman Abdollah, leads an existence between sea and sky, to the rhythm of the waves that constantly transform the landscape. With the birds as his sole companions, he lays his nets that he draws in with the ebbing tide, goes sailing in his boat, mends his nets, grills fish, cooks shrimps… not forgetting to say his prayers and take his siesta. A solitary life, full of patience and contemplation, at one with nature.
