Self-important author Leon joins his best friend on a summer holiday near the Baltic Sea to complete his novel. When they arrive, they find their house is already occupied by a carefree woman who challenges Leon to open up. Meanwhile, forest wildfires rage around them and impending disaster looms.
Can a writer find his voice while the very world around him begins to burn? This sun-drenched Baltic retreat shifts from a quiet character study into a frantic race against encroaching forest fires.
