hahaEine tiefe Schuld. Ein unerwarteter Brief. Und eine bewegende Reise in die Vergangenheit. Die schwedische Fotografin Elin Boals führt mit ihrer Familie ein scheinbar perfektes Leben in New York. Doch die Fassade ist trügerisch, denn Elin lebt in ihrer eigenen Welt, in die sie niemanden wirklich hineinlässt. Als sie völlig unerwartet einen Brief aus ihrer Heimat Gotland erhält, brechen die Erinnerungen mit Macht über sie herein - obwohl sie alles dafür getan hat, ihre Vergangenheit zu vergessen.

When Elin receives a letter from her childhood friend Fredrik on the Swedish island of Gotland, memories come flooding back: of a past she has tried to forget and a terrible secret she has shared with nobody—a secret that made her flee the island and never return. Torn between past and present and afraid the truth will destroy her family, Elin sets out on a journey to another continent, but also to another time and another life.
