Sonja has no memory of the crucial moment in her childhood that saved her life: the separation from her parents in 1943. A true story that leads you from Paramaribo to Amsterdam and into a psychiatric facility called Het Apeldoornsche Bosch. Combining conversations with Sonja, mesmerizing 3D modelling, animation and personal footage, you accompany her through skewed memories, elusive images and re-imaginations towards one moment of loss and grief during the Second World War.
