A decade after they were best friends and roommates, Chris and Lluis set out on a 600-kilometre hike through the Scottish Highlands. Following the West Highland way and The Cape Wrath Trail, they hope to rekindle their once-powerful friendship. But while Chris remains preoccupied with work and life back at home, Lluis is determined to finish the trail to prove he can do it. The solitude and silence of the Highlands forces them to confront harsh truths about themselves, their friendship, and what it truly means to stand still and listen.
