20-something-year-old Agnes, seeks independence in traveling to Iceland on her own. With a promising job as an au pair for two twin girls, she seems to have found the perfect base for her search in personal reinvention. But once arriving, Agnes quickly meets a darker truth as she is thrown into a world of distress, with a mother fully embodying the word ‘abuse’.
Henceforth, she is forced to take action in a desperate attempt to sort out the situation – whilst not being completely sorted out herself.
