Johanne is in love. For the very first time. Gazing at her new French teacher, the girl forgets herself – drowning in the fibres of her jumpers, the curls of her hair, their imagined closeness. Johanne seems to be dreaming while awake. One evening, the girl sets off to visit the teacher she desires. The seventeen-year-old pours her feelings onto paper, describing this relationship. Seeing in her a literary talent, Johanne’s mother and grandmother are taken aback by the revelations of her emotional world. Yet as time passes, a question starts spiralling – what truly happened between Johanne and the teacher? And is everything the promising young writer has described actually true?

Movie is in Norwegian with subtitles in Latvian.
