Eden has an unbreakable attachment to her young brother Nati (Ido Tako). Having to grow up with divorced parents drew them closer, so much so that they planned to flee their shattered family dynamic once Nati came of age. After an endless night of celebrating Nati’s latest birthday, he sneaks away to spend time with his secret girlfriend Maya. However, he never makes it to her. A tragic accident claims Nati’s life, leaving Eden and Maya desperate to hold onto the memories of him. The best way they know how is to entrust their hearts and sorrows with each other.
