Synopsis

For a few seconds, they become aware of each other, forgetting the roar of the coach that will take them to a Scottish seaside town. Neither German Kira nor Scottish Ian know that this brief encounter will change their lives. Both are on the run – from their past as well as the reality of their present lives. When they meet a second time that night, a magical bond develops between the two strangers. But fate tears them apart again and they return to London, unaware that they live in the same city. Kira and Ian will have to face their own demons before they are ready to truly meet in the end.
