"Islands on the Edge" is a documentary series by ERT3 that portrays the life of a few inhabitants on small outlying islands. Through a cinematic view, the experiences of the people, their stories, the past, the present, and the future of these remote places are captured. Each episode is a journey, a collection of images, faces, and moments of everyday life. An attempt to understand a different world, a small isolated land surrounded by sea.

Once upon a time, Donousa was a remote island that was difficult to reach. Today, the local community embraces people who have chosen to return to their roots and people who have not been born here but wish to live in harmony with nature.

Ilias came to his parents' island. He is a beekeeper and lives here with his partner Ploumitsa. Panormitis is a dedicated carpenter who loves to repair boats. He tries to connect with his family's past by repairing his grandfather's boat. Andreas who came from Holland, created a unique garden with thousands of cacti. In Donousa, cosmopolitan Christianna escapes from the fast pace of life. Giorgos who consciously left Athens, breathes here the tranquility of the place. Miss Georgia lives a life like the one described by Homer, organically tied to everyday life and not as a folkloristic claim to memory.

Donousa shows how this island has managed to preserve the invisible thread that connects the past with the present.
