In the spring of 1986, an explosion occurs in Chernobyl and a girl named Mimi arrives in a small town in western Finland. She immediately fills the life of 15-year-old Mariia with light. Twenty years later, Mariia returns home to care for her sick mother, and memories of that momentous summer begin to surface. (Festival de Málaga. Cine en Español.)
