Set against the backdrop of 1933 Berlin and Munich, the story follows two fifteen-year-olds, Katarina and Maria, who are united by their shared aspiration to become nurses. Despite never having met, they are driven by a deep commitment to care for individuals from all backgrounds, regardless of race, creed, or color. Their journey explores themes of compassion, resilience, and the challenges of pursuing one's dreams in a turbulent historical context.

Schoolies week: a time when anything is possible, and everything can change. Grace is avoiding her clique of judgemental friends for schoolies, instead tagging along with her brother Casper and his friends. Casper, an artist, is trying to create the perfect artwork for his uni application folio. Overachieving, anxiety-ridden Noah is reeling from a catastrophe that might have ruined his ATAR result. And Elsie is just trying to figure out how to hold their friendship group together. On the first night of the trip, they meet Sierra, a mysterious girl with silver-grey hair and a magnetic personality. All of them are drawn to her for different reasons, and she persuades them to abandon the cliched schoolies experience in favour of camping with her on a remote, uninhabited island. On that island, each of them will find answers to their questions. But whay does Sierra want from them?
