Plot

Set in 2012, historian Raimo Lappalainen embarks on a quest to recreate life from 50 years prior. His fascination with Saara Turunen, a nude model from the 1970s, leads him to cast an actress who can embody her tragic story for a documentary. As Raimo delves deeper into Saara's life and untimely demise, a significant nuclear plant strike unfolds, hidden from the public eye by the media. The intertwining narratives reveal not only the past but also the present's darker undercurrents, challenging societal perceptions of history and truth.
