Lake Balaton is one of Hungary's main tourist attractions during the summer. But when winter arrives, all the towns in the area are empty. In this context, and in the shadow of the war in Ukraine, Olena and Boldizsár meet by chance. Both are alone and try to deal with their respective problems, while trying to connect in a language that is not fluent.
