Ada, a respected journalist, receives a parcel with an autobiographical book dedicated to her and describing her childhood trauma. The book was written by Roksana, her friend from school years. The two women embark on a journey to the town where they grew up to confront their past and bring closure to the unresolved issues that cast a shadow over their lives.

The film is a full-length directing debut.
