Fifteen years later, his family receives a photograph from Interpol of an elderly gentleman with the same name who resides in a Malaysian mental asylum. Could it be him? Despite the reservations of her family, his daughter, documentary director Ieva Ozolina starts an investigation to find out the truth about the man in the photograph.
