    Three years ago, Lelle’s daughter went missing. Ever since then he 
    spends his sleepless nights with the midnight sun, driving.  He drives 
    up and down road 95 — also known as the ‘Silver Road’ — which cuts 
    through the Swedish inland, from Skelle eå on the east coast to Nor-
    way in the west, fran cally searching for his lost daughter, for himself

    was when she disappeared — a girl on the brink of adulthood, who 
    can’t wait to make her own way in the world.  

    As autumn’s darkness slowly creeps in, another young girl goes miss-
    ing. In the a ermath of the disappearance, Lelle and Meja’s lives are 
    intertwined in ways they could never imagine, and their fates are al-
