Separated from her husband, Ellen finds herself living alone in a city she dislikes—a place that denies her past and offers no hope for her future. Determined to change her life, she embarks on a journey south in search of sun and companionship. As she navigates her new surroundings, Ellen confronts her loneliness and the complexities of her identity. The story explores themes of self-discovery, the impact of relationships, and the quest for fulfillment in a world that often feels indifferent. Through her experiences, Ellen seeks not only to escape her current reality but also to redefine herself and find a sense of belonging.
