A free spirit with dreams that stretch beyond the confines of her rural world, she yearns for connection and meaning. Enter the village's new 28-year-old schoolteacher, an enigmatic and kind-hearted man whose wisdom and passion for literature ignite something in Lila she's never felt before.
Drawn together by shared intellectual curiosity, their bond deepens through secret conversations about poetry, philosophy, and the unspoken fears that haunt them both.
