We're always thinking about how we are going to live life instead of actually living it. The 22-year old Freyja is struggling with this and trying to find a middle ground. Because she is dealing with mental health conditions, she drowns in a sea of different paths, of which she does not yet know which one to take. When she forms a strong bond with 25-year-old Rubén, she is confronted with the difficulties her depression brings when forming a connecting with someone; the fear of loving when you don't yet know how to love yourself. The fear of getting close to someone because you know it’ll hurt that much more when you lose them. In the end maybe the people who are really meant to be in our lives will come our way no matter what circumstances or time.
