In a world threatened by a solar fragment flying to Earth, an 19-year-old boy gets stranded on his way to a cabin in an unknown city.
A series of bizarre adventures force him to confront his greatest fears - reconciling with the reality of a twisted world, himself, and his father.

A massive segment of the Sun has broken off and is heading for Earth, whose surface is slowly heating up to an unbearable level. A strange mood pervades a debilitated world: anything could happen, virtually anywhere, without warning. Even in a sleepy town, where an 18-year-old lad gets stranded on his way to the family cottage. The fact is that no-one knows at what temperature the human character starts to melt... While other filmmakers might adopt a catastrophic premise to tell a story of panic and man’s animal fear, the fresh, creative voice of Albert Hospodarsky looks elsewhere. In extreme situations, who runs wild and who remains docile? And can a solar eruption engender harmony as well? --KVIFF
