The protagonist of our story is Dani, a boy who keeps to himself, and his classmate Aniko. They are lucky enough to attend one of the best high schools in the country. They both stand out a little, so it's no coincidence that they quickly find common ground. But the teenagers' shy friendship and budding love is interrupted by another disaster.
Budapest, sometime in the 2050s.
The world is facing the challenges of climate change. Life is characterised by a high level of technological development on the one hand, and the threat to natural resources on the other. The achievements of the modern age are not available to everyone, but only to the inhabitants of affluent districts.
The protagonists of our story, Dani, a lonely boy, and his classmate Aniko, are lucky enough to attend one of the best high schools in the country. They both stand out a little, so it's no coincidence that they quickly find common ground. But their shy friendship and budding love is interrupted by a new disaster that tears them apart and turns their lives upside down.
Will Dani manage to track down Aniko, and if so, will they be able to face the challenges together? What will they do with the new information that will fundamentally change their perceptions of their world?
