In August 2019, 120 hopeful teenagers embark on a journey full of hopes and dreams as they start at Klejtrup Music Boarding School. Some hope to make new friends and leave behind a history of bullying in their primary school years. Others aim to move past the heartbreak of a summer romance or simply seek new adventures far from their parents and familiar surroundings. All hope to have the experience of a lifetime together. The boarding school year gives them an opportunity to redefine who they want to be as people and be changed by the new relationships they form. They meet at a crucial point in each other's lives. Their destinies become intertwined, changing them forever.

In this film war is an atmosphere, rather than a series of journalistic facts. Through music we visit all layers of society. In the form of a poem we show how it feels when your country is in an unwinnable conflict. Dusk sets the scene for a war that came unexpectedly. The soldier smokes his last cigarette in the window before taking the elevator to certain death. A mother prays for the sons of Ukraine. A babushka at Maidan sings: “If he meets death – may it be instant”.
