Synopsis
As Long As There’s Sea follows the story of Sa’dete, Burim and their son Lum.
Sa’dete and Burim were a happy couple, she a teacher, he a photographer, with a
modest life. With the break of the war in Kosovo, Burim joins the armed resistance,
never to return home. Left behind alone with a child in a patriarchal society
destroyed by war, Sa’dete creates her own survival mechanisms. With Bekim’s
corpse that never returned, without a grave where to cry her missing husband, her
life is filled with waiting. She lives in between two parallel realities, the existing
present and the past filled with memories of her missing husband, Burim, who
shows himself in the present in the form of a vision. The memories of his father,
transmitted to him by his mother, drag Lum down. A young man who is trying to find
his path in the chaotic afterwar society. As Long As There is Sea is a film for a
violent abduction of beloved persons, memories, hopes and dreams from the war
and of just as violent escapes from a suffocating reality, of those who are left behind.
