Set over a single summer day, the film follows Una, a young art student, grappling with the grief of losing her first love, Diddi, in a tragic accident. As Una navigates this emotional turmoil, she must also keep her relationship with Diddi a secret from his long-distance girlfriend, Klara, who arrives for the memorial. Premiering at Cannes as the opening film in the Un Certain Regard section, the film is praised for its subtle exploration of grief and the complex emotions that arise from sudden loss. Featuring a standout performance by Elín Hall as Una, it delves into themes of love, secrecy, and the intersection of beauty and sorrow in life’s most challenging moments​.
