 SYNOPSIS

In the middle of an endless desert, the last community of humanity lives in harmony with the destiny assigned to them by their ancestors. But Ava, a dreamy and rebellious young woman, finds this seemingly idyllic life oppressive. Her vivid visions and dreams whisper of a world beyond the familiar routine, full of unimagined possibilities that extend far beyond the monotony of her day-to-day life.

She looks up to Okko, the wise and charismatic leader of the community, who takes Ava under her protective wing. All signs point to Ava being destined for greater things - but when the clever and strategically minded Phineas is finally chosen as Okko's successor, Ava's world comes crashing down. Disillusioned and disappointed, she makes a life changing decision: she turns her back on her oasis, determined to prove to Okko and everyone else that she is a better leader than Phineas.

On her journey, Ava not only gains the support of many, but also that of Phineas, who admires her strength and determination. But the further she travels down the path of her visions, the more she falls into their dark depths. As the lines between destiny and obsession begin to blur, Ava is in danger of losing herself to her own visions.​
