Synopsis
Over 9 months traveling around the world. Different countries, different stories and just one goal. Freedom. But what kind of freedom can we find and what is the meaning of freedom in other parts of the world?
Together with ELISA and JOHN we are going to find the answer for this question and much more. We are going to meet a lot of people who will tell us their stories, while we will learn more about their cultures and discover how it feels to simply drift along.
Without knowing where to sleep the next night, or what tomorrow brings, they set off on their journey from Berlin to the south. At first Europe, then Africa, Asia and finally America. From desert landscapes and idyllic tropical islands, through the rainforest to endless train tracks that run through the entire American continent – and the camera always by their side.
