Spending time together, opening old wounds and creating new ones... it all boils down to brotherhood. No matter what happens, brothers take care of their own.

The Baltic Sea is one of the most polluted seas in the world and climate change is only making the situation worse. It is troubled by eutrophication and the lack of oxygen it causes.

The sea, which changes according to the seasons, offers unique nature experiences. The camera flying in the sky and travelling under the sea picks up spectacular details of the most beautiful destinations in the Archipelago Sea.
