Eighteen-year-old Johana is facing the most important year of her life. She dreams of leaving her small Czech town – but first, she must finish school and deal with something even more difficult. Her younger sister has autism and an intellectual disability, shaping the daily life of the entire family. Johana’s decision to leave begins to crack under the weight of guilt and responsibility. A tender film about growing up, care, and the delicate balance between loving others and loving oneself.
