Glimpse a new perspective of Arina’s adolescence, as told by her treasured diary and experienced by Frendt for the first time.

Lift a paintbrush to create pieces of art, pick up and examine familiar toys, or piece together beads to form colorful friendship bracelets. Unravel an intimate dreamscape through a whole new lens, as memories of the past tell a heartfelt story in a different light.
