Synopsis for the Film

Saint Kilda- a tiny idyllic archipelago off the Scottish Coast adrift in the North Atlantic with its strange and intriguing history and equally strange and intriguing present is the subject of director Sylvestre Sbille’s meditations on the passage of time and how a tiny island could bear so much of the imprints of human history. An island all but vacated by its original inhabitants and drained of a very unique indigenous culture during the upheaval of World War I now finds a strange and even bizarre crowd wandering about its medieval houses and unkempt wilderness- modern day scientists and their teams. ‘Saint Kilda’ according to Director Sbille, is all but lost and now remains only the destination of an inner journey of poets, philosophers and wanderers.
