No mother is able to leave alone her child light-hearted. But since a terrible war is raging in Shadi’s home country, the girl now lives in Sweden without her mum. Everything is different there and sounds so unfamiliar: the language, the noise of the city and the one in the phone when she tries to talk to her mother. Luckily, Shadi brought an audio tape with her, which she guards as life itself. It gives her comfort and a feeling of security when the situation becomes too much to bear. As beautiful memories mix with terrible visions, Shadi understands that she has to find a way to make this her new home.
