After his father dies in battle, Finnish youth Eero (Topi Majaniemi) learns that his mother, Kirsti (Marjaana Maijala), is packing him off to live with a Swedish foster family. As World War II escalates, Eero's new home in the neutral nation is safe, but he struggles to bond with his guardian (Maria Lundqvist).
