A close look at the legendary Magnum photographer Josef Koudelka's past, memories, his thoughts about photography, his stance on life and his emotional journey through 'Ruins', his last project, which is about the archaeological ruins of ancient cities in Mediterranean regions. Following the footsteps of Heraclitus over his quote that 'no man ever step in the same river,' Josef Koudelka revisits more than 200 Hellenistic and Roman ancient cities he photographed repeatedly over past 26 years. During this epic journey to Mediterranean regions, we witness the moments of joy, tenderness, and silence while focusing on Koudelka's both artistic and philosophical search for the 'maximum.'

Фильм показывает жизнь одной из стамбульских суфийских общин изнутри и повествует о благочестивом человеке, мусульманине, члене религиозного ордена, который сталкивается, вероятно, впервые в своей жизни, с властью и деньгами. Мухаррем — скромный дервиш, ведущий жизнь смирения и послушания, работает в лавке, где продают хозяйственные сумки. Он регулярно посещает зикр и встречи дервишей в одном из стамбульских медресе. Однажды Шейх, глава ордена, приближает его к себе и возлагает на него тяжелейшую мирскую задачу — работу с финансами. Главный герой, по сути, становится мытарем — сборщиком податей, и мир вокруг него меняется. Его наивная добродушность сталкивается с другой реальностью, которая была постоянно рядом, но от которой он был абстрагирован. Человека заставили взглянуть на вещи с другой стороны, изменили его мир и он… не выдержал. Крах моральных ценностей привёл к краху личности, которая не смогла подстроиться к внезапной, непонятной и нежеланной «успешности».
