Kornati Islands – The Tears of God

This 10 minutes short documentary takes you deep into the heart of one of Croatia’s most stunning natural wonders, the Kornati Islands. With about 100 islands scattered across the Adriatic Sea, the Kornati archipelago is a place where raw, untouched beauty meets the quiet strength of the people who have lived and survived in this remote and challenging environment.

The movie explores not only the dramatic and rugged landscapes of the Kornati Islands but also the incredible resilience of the islanders. Life here is a constant battle against the elements—limited resources, scorching sun, and isolation. Yet, within this hardship, there is also tranquility and a profound sense of peace.

For those seeking a break from the rush and stress of modern life, the Kornati Islands offer a sanctuary where time seems to slow down, and nature takes the lead. This film is not just about survival, but about the serene beauty found in simplicity, solitude, and connection to the earth.

The Storyteller takes you on his journey where both the harshness and harmony of life coexist in a delicate balance. Whether you're looking for inspiration, peace, or simply the awe of nature’s grandeur, this documentary will take you on an unforgettable journey. It's the chance to dive into another world and to fall out of the stress and noises the world we live in contains.
