Brief Explanation

A group of three friends decide, for once, to follow the one who wants to spend the night in an unknown destination instead of the usual-just round the corner pub. What happens next is an epic journey across time, sea and mountains. A metaphor of a legendary night, born to celebrate the small act of braveness needed to leave the security of our comfort zone and broaden our horizons. And once you arrive there, leave immediately after.
