It’s the story of a young girl in rupture, somewhere in the countryside, in a kingdom. It’s summer. She has to study for her examens. Gerda finds herself back at her aunts house. She had not seen then for years, since her mother died. It’s 1985. There is a tape in the cassette deck full of reverb. It’s crisis. Gerda has to do some choices, choices which must lead to see other horizons. Around her, some convulsions: a time is finishing.
