From a small seaside town in Sicily, a musician who has left the stage fifteen years ago travels across the Mediterranean island to put together The Silence Project, an unusual combination of ethnic and classical musicians who meet and play for the first time during an Arab Film Festival. Coming from four different elements, these eclectic artists travel from their separate worlds, uniting into a sound that blends Sicilian, Arabic, Aboriginal and jazz styles into the realm of the purest border-free music.
