There was this boy. And I was a girl. Isn't this the start of many a love story?
Sakari is a fun-loving 19-year-old when her life falls to pieces after she is raped at a city festival. But suddenly Kari is there, her second ego, who constantly reminds her of her strengths. With the help of her best friend and her family, Sakari struggles back to life and to herself.
Sakari's story is that of Sophia – with tremendous vehemence and authenticity, she depicts the consequences of a rape. Without once pointing a finger, she answers the question of how people handle those who have had to experience sexualised violence. It is also the story of a family that is almost torn apart by it. And it is a story about the value and the healing power of friendship and love.
