Three teenage boys are stuck at a remote asylum center in cold northern Norway: quiet and poetic Hamid, sensible Aras and easy-going Ismail. They know that when they turn 18, they will each be thrown a birthday party and sent out of the country with a 23-kilo suitcase. In order to stay together, they hatch an escape plan. Hamid says he can guide them to a place beyond the mountain where their dreams can be fulfilled. But when a troubled girl named Aida shows up at the center, Hamid becomes fascinated with her. This jeopardizes the trio’s escape plan and poses a challenge to their friendship.
