They hide in the hayloft, but Shira struggles to stay still and quiet as the young girl yearns to be free. In order to soothe her daughter, Roza tells her a story about a girl in an enchanted garden. This make-believe world allows her to shield her daughter from the real-world horrors that are all around them. Soon after, Roza will be faced with an impossible choice: keep her daughter by her side or give her a better chance at survival away from her.
