In 1879 Podesta Island was discovered in the Pacific Ocean and then in 1935 it was removed from maps because no one could find it. Stéphanie Roland instead of trying to prove its reality, she builts this short documentary raising questions around the belief in its existence. With fotage that makes you believe you can see what appears to be the outlines on the island and in the next moment you doubt what it seemed to be true. Is it a projection of the mind?
