Synopsis 

As we observe the remnants of the Berlin Wall today, surrounded by excited tourists, we hear the voices of artists from various backgrounds sharing their bitter experiences imposed by their nationalities. They protest the emphasis on "Nationality," viewing it as a hidden, invisible wall that deepens boundaries and separation between people, much like the Berlin Wall once did.
