One morning, as summer reaches a small town on the shore of Lake Saimaa, Maija does not arrive at school. Her mother Aino stays home by the telephone while her father Kristian drives around town looking for her. Two neighbourhood boys, Taito and Ilari, roam the woods trying to find her too. As the day turns to evening, ever more people join the search, but all anyone knows is that Maija was seen walking into the forest that morning.
