Product details

Ida leaves her home with nothing but her mother's old, scratched hard-shell suitcase, a few favorite clothes, and her MacBook. It’s likely a farewell forever to the small town where she has spent her entire life so far. Ida is really bad at saying goodbye; she didn’t even make it to her mother’s funeral two months ago. At the train station, she chooses the train that goes the farthest away—she definitely doesn’t want to go to her sister Tilda in Hamburg—and ends up in Rügen. Without a plan, just a big lump of anger, sadness, and guilt in her stomach, she wanders around the Baltic Sea island. Eventually, she meets Knut, the local pub owner, and his wife Marianne, who take her in. The three of them have breakfast together every morning with fresh rolls, and Ida spends her days with Marianne, walking through the woods or playing Skip-Bo. In the evenings, she works with Knut at the pub. She also meets Leif, who is similarly troubled as she is. Suddenly, everything feels a little lighter, more bearable in Ida's life. Until her world is once again turned upside down shortly thereafter.
