Majda is scared of the dark. She will overcome her fear today at summer camp.

Majda (7) is at summer camp and every night she wakes up paralyzed by fear of the dark. Throughout this day she’s falsely accused of stealing a headband and her sister Bára (16) tells her she’s happy she’s not her mom. A lot for a little girl to take in. So at night Majda wakes up, again. But tonight, she’ll set out on a treasure hunt through the sleeping camp. To find Bára, who has a phone. To call her mom. She must hide away from the camp counsellors. The darkness stands as her enemy and ally. She finally finds Bára by the fire. Majda wanted to call her mom, but after this thrilling night adventure, she realises she doesn’t need to. Because she overcame her fear all by herself.
