In Ukraine, 1940, a mother, trembling and heartbroken, whispers a final goodbye to her daughter, urging her to be brave as she sends her away for safety amid the chaos of war. Julia, clutching her mother's necklace, is soon captured by Nazi soldiers and taken to a labor camp, where despair envelops her behind barbed wire. Just when hope seems lost, she encounters Henry, a fellow villager who shares her dreams. As their bond deepens and Julia discovers she is pregnant, she yearns for freedom and a new life for her child. However, she faces an agonizing decision that no mother should endure. Fast forward to New York, 2011, Julia's life remains overshadowed by the war's trauma, carrying a heavy secret that haunts her every moment. After decades of loss and heartache, a late-night phone call brings the possibility of reconnection with the missing piece of her heart. Will this unexpected call offer her the chance to heal, or has too much time passed for her wounds to mend?
