Режиссер подружилась с обитателем филиппинского острова Карихатаг, когда ему было 9. Теперь ему 12, и он уезжает в город учиться – его последним дням на морском побережье и посвящена картина, почти лишенная драматургии. Камера просто фиксирует быт героя, который чистит и жарит картошку, смотрит, как отец ловит кальмаров и тунца, перекладывает камешки, обозначающие планеты Солнечной системы. Голос ребенка, прощающегося с морем и детством, порой сливается с шорохом волн, но печаль предстоящего расставания отчетливо слышна: «Прежде чем отправиться в место, где ты никогда не был, надо взять с собой камешек, а когда ты туда приедешь, надо встать на него ногой, чтобы не заболеть».

As islanders, do they listen to the sounds of the sea or to the sounds of the neighboring country? Is there any document we can listen to about Matsu? Just like images and the internet conspired to transform our vision and memory, may recorded sounds could alter our listening, and therefore our perception of these islands?
