    • Synopsis
    • Best friends Laura and Alex are on a couchsurfing adventure in Europe. This summer, they want to live carefree and emerge themselves in new cultures whilst staying with local hosts. One morning, Laura wakes up naked beside another couchsurfer - Lucas - obviously having had sex. She doesn’t remember anything from their night together. A few days later her boyfriend Elias joins the trip, and gets extremely hurt when he gets the news. Laura ends up shouldering the blame and apologises for her infidelity, but doesn’t manage to repair his trust. They break up and Elias returns home.
      Back home, Elias tells their fellow friends about the incident, after which Laura intensifies her journey in denial of the loss of control. She starts to explore her sexuality and challenge herself in what becomes an equally destructive and liberating exploration of her own boundaries. However, under this exploration a flight is veiled – from the fear that the forgotten night wasn’t voluntary.
