The film follows Ena, who discovers her parents’ love letters which they sent each other while they were separated in the most hopeless place in the world — Bosnia and Herzegovina during the war. While travelling to her childhood town, “Pustograd”, Ena recalls loneliness, anxiety and the almost impossible love of her parents.
