Zibaa, a successful Afghan filmmaker and head of the National Film Fund, recently got engaged to Samir, the love of her life. Her end-of-summer wedding plans are horribly destroyed when Taliban un- expectedly seizes Kabul, and Zibaa finds herself facing a life-changing decision. As a famous anti-Taliban activist and a governmental employee, Zibaa’s life is at risk. While Samir suggests escaping to the conservative, male dominated south for safety, Zibaa’s sister-in-law begs her to leave the country and take her daughter with her. Caught between her love for Samir and her niece’s future, Zibaa has only one hour to make a decision.

Johanna leaves with her husband Linus, teenager Tove and small Alfons for a well-deserved family vacation to a cabin in the woods. Despite the family promising her she can get some rest, there is no calm moment. During a visit to a nearby murder scene, mosquitoes begin to swarm her. Irritating at first, she eventually finds unexpected peace when allowing one to bite her. The experience awakens her selfish side, and with each bite, her desire to break free from the family grows. Nature’s influence makes her transform into a mother driven to extremes in pursuit of her desire.

It follows the journey of a few individuals, told from their perspective, as they travel there and back.
