But new beginnings are harder than they seem, so lonely and lost Liv decides to adopt Harry, an old dog
from the local shelter to keep her company.

However, she soon discovers that she is not the only one who needs a fresh start. During his daily walks around the village, he meets Valentin, an old lonely man who spends his days looking out of the window, the little boy Stanley, who is afraid of everything and hides behind the garden gate, and Maya, a teenage girl, angry at the whole world. However, things slowly begin to change…
