01 / THE STORY

A little about the film.

Seven years after World War II, a 12-year-old boy named David (Ben Tibber) escapes a Stalinism labor camp in Bulgaria where he has spent his entire life. He sets out on a risky journey to Denmark, initially believing he is on an important mission to deliver a letter, but eventually discovering that the "mission" was to reunite him with his mother, of whom he has distinct memories. Along his journey, he faces danger, fear, loneliness, hunger, and encounters various people.
