    • Synopsis
    • Samanta, a 10-year-old girl full of energy and curiosity, suffers an accident in her backyard that leads to a severe illness, requiring hospitalization. While she is bedridden in the hospital, her mind remains active, picking up sounds and voices around her. During her coma, her memories and nightmares intertwine, including a recurring dream about her father, who grapples with nightmares from his own childhood.

      Through her unsettling dreams, Samanta manages to establish a dream connection with her father. This emotional connection drives her father to fight vigorously for her recovery, exploring alternative medical treatments and seeking answers from every corner.

      Finally, after days filled with uncertainty, Samanta awakens, surrounded by the joy and gratitude of her parents. The story emerges as an emotional testimony of love, hope, and the strength of family unity in the face of adversity.
