“Your father will be released" are the words Alice hears on the phone that night.

Skeptical 27-year-old Alice doesn’t actually believe that anyone can come back after years of imprisonment in the Zone. And yet she faces the biggest dilemma of her life: to go back to her fatherland, an enigmatic war region, and risk her life or to stay with her fiancé and pretend the call never happened.
