En el verano de sus vidas, tres adolescentes finlandeses se debatiran entre Jesús y los primeros amores en el debut de la directora Ulla Heikkilä, que traza un sutil y revelador retrato de los caminos de la fe y la liberación sexual en la volatil etapa vital que es la adolescencia. Cada verano, los adolescentes finlandeses que practican el catolicismo se preparan para ir al campamento donde se confirmarán ante los ojos de Dios, y la iglesia. En este particular verano, conoceremos a cuatro de ellos, todos divididos entre su identidad religiosa, la independencia y el cosquilleo del primer amor.
