Sometimes people want to go somewhere else, where things are different and better. Poor area in north western Bulgaria by the Danube river. On an abandoned ship friends are having a birthday party. A homeless man who lives in the river station is the captain. Everyone is speaking about imaginary trip to Norway. They talk about the future and the past, their everyday hardships and dreams, speculate on reincarnation, love, cows, horses, Michelangelo, Prometheus, peacocks, the stratosphere, the universe, God and life in general.
