Synopsis:
On a beautiful spring day, a small village full of eccentric characters wakes up and learns that Selma had a premonition: she dreamed again of a rare animal: an okapi. The whole village knows that this means someone is about to die. The fear of seeing the prophecy come true throws the village into a confused frenzy. Selma's granddaughter, Luise, 11, and her best friend Martin are mere spectators, but when the premonition comes true, it is young Luise's world that is suddenly turned upside down.
Ten years after this life-changing event, Luise leads a quiet life and works in a bookstore, until the arrival of an unexpected guest makes her rediscover how powerful and life-giving love can be.
