Wiktoria had a plan. She wanted the world to finally go quiet, and for her pain to dissolve into the darkness. She never expected fate to grant her wish with such cruel precision. Following a failed suicide attempt, she wakes up in the hospital-alive, but trapped. Her world has become a glass cage, guarded by the parents she can see but no longer hear. She is an observer of a life she no longer feels part of.
Alma has lost nearly everything that defined her life in Spain. Moving to Poland was hard enough, but the accident that shattered the dexterity of her hand felt like a death sentence. Her guitar was her voice, her heritage, and her home. Now, in a sterile hospital ward, Alma fights for every chord and every tremor of the strings, desperate to reclaim the person she used to be.
When these two shattered worlds collide, something emerges that neither could have predicted. Wiktoria learns to "hear" with her fingertips, pressing her palm against the vibrating wood of Alma's guitar. In turn, Alma discovers that music possesses its greatest power when it reaches someone who cannot hear it at all.
Can two broken souls become each other's lifeline? Can the vibrations of a single guitar be enough to make Wiktoria want to feel the rhythm of her own heart again?
