The entire island of Stromboli is a volcano, one of the most active volcanoes in the world. Still, 300 people live there all year around and love this vulnerable and magnetic place.
Why do they chose to live on a volcano that constantly erupts? What can their life tell us about ourselves?
Guided by the voice of Ingrid Bergman on the island of fire, we find home, happiness and freedom. What mystery, what beauty.
