An important question is: can these locals and newcomers create a coherent community? This documentary tries to find out by questioning several representatives of the parties concerned.
Inhalt: Motovun ist eine der schönsten und interessantesten Städte in Istrien und hat wie viele andere in der Region eine wechselvolle Vergangenheit. Die Gegenwart ist geprägt von Unsicherheit ob der Zukunft, und der Film versucht durch Befragung herauszufinden, ob Einheimische und Fremde dabei einen gemeinsamen Weg finden können.
