December 31, 2012, New Year’s Eve, a party on the third level of an Amsterdam apartment. Among the crowd are Misha, Seb and Yvonne. Three people connected because of a loss they share: almost a year ago Misha’s brother Twan died. Twan is Seb’s childhood friend and Yvonne’s first love. After midnight the three drift away from the party and start walking.
