In the complex labyrinth of life, each existential pathway appears to follow its predestined course. But what if every crossroads bears the potential of changing direction?
During one of the darkest days of grief in her life, in a restaurant in Stockholm, Isabelle accidentally meets András. Their encounter has all the magic and the sparkling she could dream of, though Isabelle is not in a moment in her life to let anyone enter her heart.
Three years later, Isabelle is on her way to spend a month in Budapest, the town András lived in at the time they met. Are they going to reconnect, or was their spontaneous dinner meant to remain the preamble of an untold story? During Isabelle's first days in the Hungarian capital, a cavalcade of events and memories intertwine to bring answers and insights that close chapters and unlock doors to amazing opportunities that were out of reach for her up to that moment.
