Interwoven with the stories of artistic connections between East and West, the documentary connects the dots through the works of contemporary media artists to share the story of creativity, innovation and artistic resistance. Following the lives of local and migrant contemporary media artists in the Netherlands, the film traces non-linear journeys of artistic practices between the East and the West. During the film, we meet these artists to delve deeper into periodic shifts in religious, economic and socio-political power structures and their impact on human lives.
