For the past 20 years, Olivier, a Frenchman, has lived alone on a small island lent to him by First Nations people, located 200km from Yellowknife, the only city of Northwestern Territories in Canada. One day, three visitors land on the island and disrupt his peace. Nostromo is a film about the dream of living alone in a remote place and its limits. Through its characters, Nostromo explores the thin line between happiness and self-convincing in an unforgiving nature.
