6 x 45’

It’s a beautiful late summer evening in southern Sweden in the late 90s. Fourteen-year-old Vera is riding her bicycle on the remote farm on which she lives. Her younger brother, five-year-old Billy, insists on coming with her. She doesn’t want to take him and sends Billy home. Billy vanishes without a trace and the whole community joins the family to search for him. No trace is found, and the search is eventually called off. 20 years later, Vera now a grief counsellor, meets a young man whose story and appearance strongly resembles that of her missing brother. She returns home to find answers. Vera is determined to discover what really happened to Billy, though her determination to uncover the truth is not shared by all her family. Nothing can prepare Vera for quite how shattering the truth will be.
