But as the seasons change, tensions begin to rise and when an unexpected visitor appears at their door, nothing will be the same again ...Three decades later, Lila arrives at the same remote cottage. With her marriage in crisis, she finds solace in renovating the tumbledown house. Little by little she wonders about the previous inhabitants. How did they manage in such isolation?
