The Story
Driven by self-destructive impulses, Sara (Marta Sveinbjörnsdóttir) puts everything aside—her career, her relationship with her fiancé, even her own sense of belonging and moves alone to Berlin, “the city for lost souls”, where she tries to redefine herself and start a new life.
Sara’s thirst for life is unquenchable. She surrounds herself with new friends and acquaintances to find her true passions, but her past haunts her wherever she goes. She finally realizes that she has left her heart at home in Iceland.
