Lecturer
John, a Maltese student with big dreams and a serious lack of sleep, has had a busy and exhausting last couple of days. It all takes a toll on him during one night whilst driving home from work. His going missing effects a series of coincidental events on a night of tragedy.
Physician
A cantankerous and brilliant architect, Alfred, embarks on a highly unusual commission in Malta for a man who calls himself 'The Grand Duke of Corsica'. An epidemic hits the Island and all must flee, but Alfred remains to finish the job.
Parish Priest
Young Theo is sent on his first trip with his Maltese sea faring family, but things go terribly wrong when the 'Simshar' sinks, leaving the crew stranded in the Mediterranean... Simultaneously, Alex - a medic reluctantly dispatched onto a Turkish Merchant vessel which has rescued a group of stranded African boat people between Malta and Italy - gets stuck on the boat as the countries wage a bureaucratic war over who should take in the migrants... The stories unravel in parallel and culminate tragically when the fishermen are traced down, but by that time there's only one survivor.
Lord William
1300년도 치열했던 북부 전투에서 유일하게 생존한 다섯 명의 병사는 고향으로 돌아가는 여정 길에 오른다. 지치고 배고팠던 다섯 명의 병사들은 윌리엄 영주의 성에 들러 하룻밤을 보내며 휴식을 취한다. 그리고 영주의 성 안을 거닐던 트리스탄은 의미심장한 눈빛의 매혹적인 여인과 마주치게 된다. 트리스탄은 그 여인을 둘러싼 무언가가 있음을 직감하여 내막을 알아보고자 했지만 먼 길의 여정을 마무리 하기 위해 성을 떠난다. 그러나 성 안에서의 여인이 도망치다 붙잡힌 모습을 목격하게 되고 여인을 구하기 위해 트리스탄은 급기야 윌리엄 영주의 아들을 죽이게 되는데… 복수와 피로 얼룩진 여정이 시작된다!
