When the war in Mostar begin, Ena's parents, a married couple of different nationalities, moved away from the war from Mostar to Pustograd where Ena's father is taken into captivity. Ena and her mother are left alone in the world. They live in anxiety and fear, not knowing if their other half is dead or alive. Six months after Ena's father is taken, Ena and her mother receive the first letter. The letter comes in unaddressed, unfamiliar way.
