Plot
The story begins with the disappearance of the young Halyna (Anna Melo) in 1988, in the fictional city of Brígida, founded by Ukrainian immigrants.
At the time of the disappearance, the town celebrated Ivana-Kupala, a feast with pagan origins and linked to fertility rites that was incorporated later into the calendar of Orthodox Christians, and in fact is held at the turn of 6 to 7 July. The tragedy caused the feast to be banned from the city's calendar, and thirty years later, when tradition is resumed, mysterious events happen again.[1]
