Plot summary

{{Expand section|date=August 2023}}

Cora, a young psychiatrist, has recently started handling the case of a young woman who refuses to speak. No one at the hospital knows her name or where she's come from.

Cora feels as though the woman is calling out to her. She becomes quite attached to her and establishes a relationship that slips further and further away from prescribed therapeutic procedure.

It's then discovered that the young woman is a foreigner. Her name is Loa and she comes from Vestmannaeyar, a small Icelandic island.
