A film about Tenedos and passion of island. "Somewhere among the notebooks of Gideon I once found a list of diseases as yet unclassified by medical science, and among these there occurred the word islomania, which was described as a rare but by no means unknown affliction of spirit. These are people, Gideon used to say, by way of explanation, who find islands somehow irresistible. We islomanes, says Gideon, are the direct descendants of the Atlanteans, and it is toward the lost Atlantis that our subconscious is drawn. This means that we find islands irresistible." Lawrence Durrell - Reflection on a Marine Venus Islomania was identified by British writer Durrell as a craze for or a strong attraction to islands. And Tenedos is an island on North of Aegean. Most of the islomanes from Turkey and all over the world prefer to live. The documentary film is telling the stories of these islomanes.
