A movie about what is fake and what is real, that flutters between documentary and fiction. About flying and falling, the human need to fly, fear of heights, vertigo, utopia, Gods and man. Inspired by the ancient Greek comedy “Ornithes” by Aristophanes and the homonymous theatrical performance by Nikos Karathanos and Onassis Stegi.
