Klara (15) was raped by a masked boy on Wet Monday, a traditional Polish Easter festivity popular with teenagers. A year later, nine days before the trauma anniversary, the protagonist starts to suffer from an acute fear of water. Klara seeks support with her new esoteric friend Diana (17) and finally faces the repressed trauma. A magical story of teenage-hood, healing from trauma and the power of empathy.
