In particular, the plot will focus on a 17-year-old girl called Maren, sent to the island to be “re-educated”. The girl refuses to comply and ignites a spark in Sørine, who has been dutiful at the institution for six years. Reymann co-penned the script with writer Sara Isabella Jønsson (Miss Osaka, Persona non grata [+lire aussi :
