Angelika is a young woman who one day finds herself in an empty house. When she comes to her senses, she realises that she has no memory of who she is and no idea what has been done to her. Physically weak and psychologically fragile, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery filled with painful flashbacks, fear and uncertainty. With the help of Oliver, who lives in the house next door, she begins to discover, fragment by fragment, what has happened over the past few years - the years taken from her.
