The third part of the »trilogy of pain and beauty« is a film song about a mother and a daughter. The mother takes the daughter to a foreign land and locks her in the house in a remote village. Although they do not talk to each other, it is clear, that the daughter has self-destructive tendencies. The journey that starts as the mother’s try to save her child, turns into a magical spiritual adventure, during which the mother re-awakens the life in herself.
