Two cultures, four countries, five languages, one life. In her Odyssey through Europe during the second world war, Walfrieda Peer experienced its brutality, neighbors killing each other due to cultural differences, a flight through the bitter cold, and what it means to sit between life and death - and all of this at the sole age of 18. But yet Walfrieda carried her remarkable spirit of life through all of it. In an attempt to find out more about herself and how she relates to her grandmas' history, Emma explores the meaning of identity and belonging.
